pg_restore

Hey,
I have upgraded my pgostgresql from 7.1.2 to 7.1.3 as the pg_restore
is not working properly in 7.1.2
I took the database backup with pg_dump.
After upgrading to 7.1.3, I have restored the database with
pg_restore.
It is restoring , but giving the following error with sequences and
recovery is failing

Archiver(db): Could not execute query. Code = 7. Explanation from
backend: 'ERROR:  mysequence.setval: you don't have permissions to set
sequence mysequence

Why it is giving the error that the perssion is not there. Actually, I
'm restoring from pgsql super user account.

Can anybody help me how to fix it. Thanks in advance

Hi.

I'm not any guru, but I think if you make the pg_dump/pg_restore with
the -x (whitout acl's), and -O (whitout owner) an, finally, -i
(ignore-version), will possible to make this backup (I think).

Have a nice day ;-)

Hmm, I think I see an oversight in pg_dump.  Exactly what options did
you give to pg_dump and pg_restore?

I've applied the attached patch to 7.2 sources to fix this problem.
You could probably adapt it to 7.1.3 pg_dump, but I haven't looked.
