Hi,

I am facing a strange problem while taking dump of a postgres database using pg_dump. whenever I start the pg_dump command to take the backup of that particular database, it stops within few minutes with the below mentioned error:

*[root@s8-msd-2 bin]# ./pg_dump -Upostgres pdc_uima_dummy > /hdd2-1/pdc_uima_dummy_108_18092012.sql
pg_dump: SQL command failed
pg_dump: Error message from server: ERROR: invalid memory alloc request size 18446744073709551613 pg_dump: The command was: COPY public.object_data (id, wkb_geometry, obj_type_id, obj_beginoffset, obj_endoffset, source_id, sentence_id, last_mod_date, obj_norm_value, obj_text, entity_name, frequency) TO stdout;*

After repeating the process many times I am getting the same error every time. Due to space problem in the database server, the tablespace of that particular database is mounted on another storage server. Is this mounting is the cause of the error or anything else? Plz suggest.

Thanks & Regards,
Himanshu Joshi
