7.2.3, and whatever ver of tsearch is included in the contrib dir for
that.

Don't suppose you still have that lying around? :)

Not sure it is that, but it could be I guess. From looking at the source
there are single quotes around all the tsearch words.

I've also tried dumping the database with:

   pg_dump -Fc -b -c reviewer > reviewer.tar

But when I restore using:

   pg_restore -Fc -C -d template1 reviewer.tar

I get the following error:

   pg_restore: [archiver (db)] could not execute query: ERROR:  Unable
to locate type name 'txtidx' in catalog

I've tried with and without including all the tsearch objects in
template1, when I have included them I just get a load of other errors
because the objects already exist.


Yours Unwhettedly,
Robert John Shepherd.
