Thread: bug report
This is a bug I reported a number of versions back, but it is still here. 1.6 Beta 1 If you restore a database and there are warnings when you click OK it tries to do the backup again. You have to click Cancel, which is counter intuitive. Thank You Sim Zacks IT Manager CompuLab 04-829-0145 - Office 04-832-5251 - Fax

I'm not sure how that's any different from any of the other dialogues - click the OK button and an attempt is made to create an object for example - if an error occurs you can change options and try OK again, or hit Cancel to abort.

The difference is when there are only warnings, that means the restore was completed. If you click OK then it will try to restore it again over the restore that you already did, which will either completely fail, causing confusion as to exactly what happened or somehow import again causing untold grief.

We don't know whether there have been errors or warnings though - we rely on the return value from pg_restore to tell us if the restore has been successful or not. I'm not even sure if we can grep the output for 'ERROR' because that may be localised. Regards, Dave
