This is one of those 'stupid questions I hate to ask' ... I've rechecked the
docs to make sure I haven't missed something stupid, and unless I'm blind,
I haven't ...
I'm trying to upgrade a database from 8.1 -> 8.2 ... on a seperate server,
with 8.2 pg_dump already installed, I do:
pg_dumpall -U pgsql -h <host> > dump.sql
Works great.
Then I upgrade the 8.1 server to 8.2, initdb, and try and do the restore
doing:
psql -U pgsql -h <host> template1 < dump.sql
And get a whack of:
invalid command \n
invalid command \
invalid command \ni
invalid command \
invalid command \n
invalid command \n
invalid command \.
and other errors ... so I'm obviously missing something that is probably
obvious to everyone else ... am I dumping wrong? If I use '--inserts',
it, of course, works like a charm, its only when I try and use COPY ...
