Обсуждение: Restore from pg_dumpall
I'm upgrading Gforge and the first sql file I tried to load gave me the following error:
--
-- Function to enforce consistency in task start/end dates
--
DROP FUNCTION projtask_insert_depend () CASCADE ;
ERROR: parser: parse error at or near "CASCADE"
…
Can anyone point out to me what is wrong with this sql? Thanks.

Yoway, What are you upgrading from/to? Can you share your dump and restore command line as well?

Nothing ... in any PG version newer than 7.3 or so. Are you trying
to back-port a dump into an older server version, and if so why?

>From: Jeff Frost [mailto:jeff@frostconsultingllc.com] >What are you upgrading from/to? Can you share your dump and restore command line as well? I am upgrading from Gforge 3.0b1 to Gforge 4.5.0.1. Unfortunately, I don't have the dump and restore in my buffer, but I ran "pg_dumpall > backup.dump" and then I tried to upgrade Gforge and I got errors, so I freaked out and decided to restore before trying again. I then ran "pg_restore -c backup.dump" and it told me the file wasn't an archive so it wouldn't restore. >From: Tom Lane >Nothing ... in any PG version newer than 7.3 or so.

All I want to do is upgrade to Gforge 4.5.0.1. However, I *feel* I jacked up the DB in the process, so now I just want to restore from my dump and then try upgrading again. Thanks for all your help guys.

The pg_dumpall outputs straight SQL to stdout to recreate all DBs. To restore this, you would just do the following: psql template1 < backup.dump pg_restore is looking for one of the other output formats (tar or custom). -- Jeff Frost, Owner <jeff@frostconsultingllc.com> Frost Consulting, LLC http://www.frostconsultingllc.com/ Phone: 650-780-7908 FAX: 650-649-1954
No, I'm not trying to back-port a dump. I simply followed the
instructions in the section 2.3.4 of the gforge manual which tells me to
go into the db/ folder and apply the schema changes in order for all sql
files dated after the existing installation. So I started with
20050312.sql and it gave me this parse error near "CASCADE".
You mention there's nothing wrong with this. Does this mean the message
is not really an error and I can safely ignore it?

What that probably means is that you need a newer version of Postgres
before trying to install gforge. It would seem that you have PG 7.2 or
before. I don't know what gforge's minimum requirement for PG version
is, but certainly 7.2 is pretty ancient.
