I'm curious why this would happen:
pg_dump: dumpBlobs(): could not open large object: ERROR: inv_open: large
object 145391 not found
The db being dumped is 7.3.2 and the pg_dumpall is from a source compiled
8.1.4. The OS in question is Redhat 8 (soon to be upgraded). When I used the
7.3.2 pg_dump -b, everything dumped out ok, but using the 8.1.4 pg_dumpall
which is supposed to properly handle large objects, I received this error.
Note, there's only the single error above, and I still ended up with a 17gig
bzipped file. The 7.3.2 pg_dump yielded a 16gig file in custom format with
default compression.
I need to get a reasonable dump so I can upgrade this ancient system. Should
I upgrade to the most recent 7.3.x version before doing the dump to have the
most reasonable chance of success?
