I was following migration document
http://www.postgresql.org/docs/8.2/interactive/migration.html and hit
the problem I can't solve.
Basically my goal is to migrate data from 8.0.3 to 8.2.3
The error I am getting is:
ERROR: type "char" is not a domain

I am thinking that it has something to do with usesysid not being
consistent for valid_user type from 8.0.3 to 8.2.3.
On 8.0.3:
labdb=# select * from pg_user where usename='mfgtest';
-[ RECORD 1 ]---------
usename | mfgtest
usesysid | 11302
usecreatedb | f
usesuper | f
usecatupd | f
passwd | ********
valuntil |
useconfig |
On 8.2.3:
labdb=# select * from pg_user where usename='mfgtest';
-[ RECORD 1 ]---------
usename | mfgtest
usesysid | 16612
usecreatedb | f
usesuper | f
usecatupd | f
passwd | ********
valuntil |
useconfig |
Any suggesting on how to solve it or where to look or what to try?
Thank you,
