Hi,
I'm trying to backup a database using pg_dump, but whenever I try I
get an error telling me I am really hosed. The template1 database works,
psql works fine, the database is live and working just peachy, but I can't
back it up.
nm
--
[nikm@db01 /tmp]# pg_dump -o darwin > q
pg_dump: couldn't find the template1 database. You are really hosed.
Giving up.
[nikm@db01 /tmp]# env | grep PG
PGLIB=/usr/local/pgsql/lib
PGDATA=/usr/local/pgsql/data
[nikm@db01 /tmp]# psql template1
