Hi Tom.
Actually the -p paremeter has the argument, but I think I've removed it to clarify the command, because it comes from a variable $pgport in my script.
Concerning to tar command, I think you're right, I didn't notice... but it did work great until pop up these erros in the end, so I've googled and I've seen other people with the same problem, what led me to think it was a postgres error.
I'll try again unwrapping the file properly
Thanks.

wrapped the dump script into a tar archive, and then not unwrapped it.
The pg_dump argument list seems a bit less than kosher, as well ...
doesn't -p require an argument?
