I was afraid of that: you've got some views created with the patch installed and some with it not installed. > i have a few options left to try but i might be reduced to stitching together > COPYs and system tables from an older backup. It should be possible to manually correct the bogus entries. Basically what the patch does is add a field to the QUERY structure, whose name I forget but comparing working and non-working ev_action strings should expose it. (It's probably near the end of the string.) If you delete the field (text ":fieldname <> ") from the non-working ev_action strings you should be able to get to a state where all the views will dump in a non-hier build. regards, tom lane ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 4: Have you searched our list archives? http://archives.postgresql.org
