The database dump worked great with the new version.

I'm receiving an error from pg_dumpall while trying to backup my database. To explain, this database used to be 7.2.1 but we have upgraded the server and I just used pg_dumpall and then reloaded that data into the new system which runs on 7.3.3 The problem is I get an error when using pg_dumpall/pg_dump.
Here are the version info and the error messages.
Old database.
version -------------------------------------------------------------
PostgreSQL 7.2.1 on i586-pc-linux-gnu, compiled by GCC 2.96
(1 row)
New database.
version ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
PostgreSQL 7.3.3 on i686-pc-linux-gnu, compiled by GCC gcc (GCC) 3.2 20020903 (Red Hat Linux 8.0 3.2-7)
(1 row)
Error message when using pg_dump. I get the same message with pg_dumpall.
pg_dump -i -U postgres whse > db.out

pg_dump: server version: PostgreSQL 7.3.3 on i686-pc-linux-gnu, compiled by GCC gcc (GCC) 3.2 20020903 (Red Hat Linux 8.0 3.2-7); pg_dump version: 7.2.2
pg_dump: proceeding despite version mismatch
pg_dump: query to obtain list of data types failed: ERROR: Attribute "typprtlen" not found
It says that it's using pg_dump version 7.2.2. I'm not sure if that is the version that comes with 7.3.3, but PostgreSQL was compile fresh from source on the new machine. Where it got this version of pg_dump/pg_dumpall I'm unclear of.
If anyone has any ideas that could help me out it would be greatly appreciated. I tried searching the pgsql-admin archives, but was unable to find related items.
Thanks, Dave
