Thread: Problem with backups and functions.
I am not sure if I am doing something wrong or a hit a bug, so here it goes: I am running PostgreSQL 8.0.1 under Windows 2000. We have this database here which is really small and has a set of 5 functions. All the functions are programmed using pgpsql so we used the functionality where we can use named parameters in the functions. The problem is that when we do a backup/restore procedure (using pg_dump/pg_restore), the functions are restored without the named parameters, which make then fail as inside the function the parameter names are mentioned. For example, the funtion that would originally be: cubfn002_recuperar_nu_ordem(numero_pessoa int8) Would be restored as: cubfn002_recuperar_nu_ordem(int8) Due to that the function errors out as "numero_pessoa" is used inside it but is now an unknow identifier. Am I missing something?

Perhaps you are using a pre-8.0 pg_dump?

Hi Tom. Thanks for the reply. I am sure this is not the case. I am doing test dumps on my machine (only PostgreSQL 8.0.1 installed) and the server is also running PostgreSQL 8.0.1. -Bruno Tom Lane wrote: > "Bruno G.

You dump from Windows creating a file foo.sql You restore the file where? What OS? What command? Sincerely, Joshua D. Drake > > -Bruno > > Tom Lane wrote: > > "Bruno G.
