Re: Changing the Datatype from Bit to Boolean.

I am new to PostgreSQL. I am trying to restore a db downloaded from GitHub. Pg_restore is coming with error when tried using pgAdmin. Can you tell what the reason could be?

Thanks for your help.

you can add one new column(boolean) and then remove the BIT column。

Hi,

Aurora PostgreSQL DB has a table in which one column has the datatype BIT(1). Now the requirement is that I have to change the datatype of that column from BIT to BOOLEAN. There are only a few rows in the table.
