Thread: unknown type
Hi,
while restoring backup i have received these messages
WARNING: column "id" has type "unknown"
DETAIL: Proceeding with relation creation anyway.
I have tried to grep schema-only dump file, but i didn't find word unknown. When i have extracted all mentioned ID fields i didn't find any field which is not of type integer,smallint or varchar.
How can i find out which table has that unknown type?
Thanx in advance

It's most likely a view with an output column that's an undecorated string literal. > I have tried to grep schema-only dump file, but i didn't find word unknown. > When i have extracted all mentioned ID fields i didn't find any field which > is not of type integer,smallint or varchar. > How can i find out which table has that unknown type? Try something like select attrelid::regclass, attname from pg_attribute where atttypid = 'unknown'::regtype; regards, tom lane
