Greetings one and all,

I am porting all my databases from a 32 bit Postgres engine to 64 bit Postgres. To do this, I did a pg_dumpall and I'm restoring. I got an error on the restoration as follows:

psql:/dbsdisk/data_load/dbdev_all_080915.sql:3920581: WARNING: column "collection" has type "unknown"
DETAIL:  Proceeding with relation creation anyway.

The view that was being processes when the error occurred is:

    View "public.v_cos_master_year_count"
   Column    |       Type        | Modifiers
-------------+-------------------+-----------
 collection  | text              |
 year        | character varying |
 entry_count | bigint            |
View definition:
SELECT 'cos'::text AS collection, cos_master.year_published AS "year", count(cos_master.id) AS entry_count
   FROM cos_master
  GROUP BY cos_master.year_published, cos_master.collection
  ORDER BY cos_master.year_published;

There are a number of views in this particular database where "collection" is used in this way and they all get this warning. Text is a valid type, albeit nonstandard. What is triggering this warning?

Thanks,
Carol
