The very similar problem occured on my server machine (which I upgraded from Squeeze to wheezy yesterday) with locally executed dump. Backup was interrupted every time when it reached one of the biggest tables, stopping at approx. 77MB of data. I've gone back to openssl 0.9.8o-4squeeze14, but it didn't help.
Oddly enough, cluster upgrade did the trick (from 8.3 to 9.1) and now it works with current openssl. My error message was: [...] pg_dump: restoring data for table "xyz" pg_dump: dumping contents of table xyz pg_dump: Dumping the contents of table "xyz" failed: PQgetCopyData() failed. pg_dump: Error message from server: błąd SSL: ccs received early pg_dump: The command was: COPY a.xyz (x,y,z) TO stdout; pg_dump: *** aborted because of error -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
