Re: [GENERAL] Backup and restore from 7.4.1 to latest, crossing platforms... issues?

ackups are not going to work across major releases so justinstalling 8.0 with your old cluster won't work.You'll need to do a pg_dump of your old setup and then restore on yournew cluster.Hope this helps, On Wed, Jul 27, 2005 at 12:27:41AM -0400, Mark Mikulec wrote:> Hi there,>>

Hi there, This may be a stupid question but I feel I should ask it anyway just to be sure, since I've had problems in the past. I currently have a defunct Debian 3.0 system running PostgreSQL 7.4.1, in which I am going to do an entire blob backup dump of all the databases in hopes to restore them
