hi, there, tom. thank you for your help.

i turned -c off and now i find a less no. of errors, however, i still
get them!
(i used to have approx 70 'errors ignored on restore', now i have
approx 30 or even less than that).

one of errors is like below;

pg_restore: [archiver (db)] Error from TOC entry 18; 1255 17234
FUNCTION relatio
n_size(text) postgres
pg_restore: [archiver (db)] could not execute query: ERROR:  could not
access fi
le "$libdir/dbsize": No such file or directory
    Command was: CREATE FUNCTION relation_size(text) RETURNS bigint
    AS '$libdir/dbsize', 'relation_size'
    LANGUAGE c STRICT;

the options i am currently using are -i (ignore-version), -h (host), -d
(database), -U (user) and -W (password).

is there any way you can fix this problem?

thanks, nuno
