I have a very wide table, too wide to normally be created (due to
buffer size constraints), which was created via inheritance of two classes.
I'm trying to move the table from 6.0 to 6.1, but pg_dump gives a
Bus Error (under sparc Solaris 2.5.1) after partially printing out the
header. I presume this is because the line to be printed was too long
and overflowed a buffer.
[NOTE to author of pg_dumpall: it should check the return of
pg_dump to ensure that there was no error.]
Can someone point me to where I should start looking in order to relieve
the buffer limitations in postgres? I can't make the table any narrower.
Thanks,
Diab
