Posting here because it may be a 8.1 pre-release problem. I'll take
it to the admin list if it looks like it's not.
File dumped from 8.1beta3 using pg_dump -Fc on Linux box.
This dump restored successfully onto 8.1RC1 on Linux box.
File FTP'd to Windows box; attempt to restore onto 8.1RC1 fails with:
pg_restore [archiver] file offset in dump file is too large
This happens even wilth pg_restore -l <filename>
All instanced init'd with --locale=C
Both Linux and Windows 8.1RC1 instances give:
dtr=> \l List of databases Name | Owner | Encoding
-----------+----------+-----------dtr | dtr | SQL_ASCIIpostgres | postgres | SQL_ASCIItemplate0 | postgres
|SQL_ASCIItemplate1 | postgres | SQL_ASCII
(4 rows)
(Source database was also SQL_ASCII.)
On the Linux box:
; Archive created at Mon Oct 31 20:00:01 2005
; dbname: dtr
; TOC Entries: 166
; Compression: -1
; Dump Version: 1.10-0
; Format: CUSTOM
; Integer: 4 bytes
; Offset: 8 bytes
; Dumped from database version: 8.1beta3
; Dumped by pg_dump version: 8.1beta3
-rw-r--r-- 1 postgres users 40874747876 Nov 1 05:27 dtr.dump
On Windows, the file size and md5sum -b result is identical.
Any suggestions on things to check or try?
