Re: Database Error (Bogus atrribute number 24....) - Mailing list pgsql-admin

Thats the thing, I have no idea how I got into this.  I was cutting and pasting the view from one database to another.  Did a refresh, it didn't show, I pasted again, it allowed it and then all hell broke lose.

This was in pg_admin III.

Thanks for the fix, I will try, I can afford to lose it on all databases in the system, I have copies on 3 different systems.  The issue is this one database that it happened on happens to be the one in production.

Hm, can you tell us how you got into this fix?  That shouldn't happen
AFAICS.

As far as getting out of the problem is concerned, if you don't need the
view you could just manually delete its pg_class row: as superuser do
	delete from pg_class where relname = 'vs_actfreighservices'

(if you have multiple views named vs_actfreighservices in different
schemas, more selectivity would be needed).  That should leave you in a
state where you can run pg_dump.
