Drop '-d' from the pg_dump command. '-d' creates a dump file with
insert statements instead of copy statements. From the pg_dump man
page:
-d
--inserts
Dump data as INSERT commands (rather than COPY). This will make
restoration very slow, but it makes the archives more portable
to other SQL database packages.
