Hi

I am having a little more success with the pg_dump command. However, I still
seem to have something wrong.

I use the following command after navigating to the bin file -

pg_dump -h localhost -d Aurel -U postgres

After six attempts -

Each attempt processed the database and the command prompt announced a
successful completion.

after 3 attempts - no dump file was found
after 2 attempts - a dump file of 0kb was found.
after the sixth attempt a good dump file of 4 meg made it to the bin folder.
I was able to install this file successfully.

Is it usual to require multiple attempts for each successful dump???

If not, does anyone have thoughts on where  the problem could be??
