Hi,
I have a postgresql database that I have added postgis capabilities to. When I pg_dump out the database, it outputs all the tables, functions, types as you'd expect, but it outputs table definitions that reference postgis functions/types *before* the functions/types themselves. This means that when I restore the database on a different machine, the table definitions complain because they don't know about the types that are referenced further down the file. I checked to see if I could force the pg_dump to be in a particular order, but that doesn't seem possible (or I'm just blind :) ) I'm guessing the info is just coming out in OID order? Of course, it may be an impossible task to do anything about this and in my case I do have workarounds (not to mention I can edit the file :) ), but I thought I'd mention it anyway. Wonderful database by the way! cheers steve ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 7: don't forget to increase your free space map settings
