On a computer with 2G Ram running Debian Squeeze and Postgresql 8.4.8-0squeeze2
I made a dump using 'pg_dump kb > kb.sql'.
I copied the file to another computer with 8G RAM running Debian
wheezy/sid/Postgresql 8.4.8-2 and tried to load that data by running
'psql -f kb.sql' - a process which produced a lot of errors ending with
psql:kb.sql:4189263: invalid command \N
psql:kb.sql:4189277: invalid command \N
psql:kb.sql:4189278: invalid command \N

psql:kb.sql:7991569: ERROR: out of memory
DETAIL: Cannot enlarge string buffer containing 0 bytes by 1311240426 more bytes.
What is causing the 'invalid command' lines?
And the memory problem?
There are several foreign keys in the database.
