Hi Magnus & Heiki,

The above problem solved when I have connected 8.1 server through PgAdmin III OF 9.1 version and restored.

So, I think there was some bug fix related to the above problem in PgSql 9.1 pg_restore.exe.

This is for your reference and information.

Thanks and regards,

Should we need to do any changes in any kind of configurations in
Windows XP or PostgreSql??

According to the commit logs, there was a win32-related fix to this on 8.2,
and some further MinGW-related changes in 8.4.

Regardless of this issue, I'd suggest that you upgrade to the latest
version, 9.1.1. 8.1 isn't supported anymore, and 8.2 is just about to reach
EOL by the end of December
(http://wiki.postgresql.org/wiki/PostgreSQL_Release_Support_Policy).

Note that 8.1 was EOL'ed on Windows specifically even earlier than it
was in general.


We are trying to restore the data base backup in 8.1 version through 9.1
PGAdmin III.

PGDump ran through "Fedora Linux 10 (Data Base Server) OS".

Is there any other chance to give the above error? I meant something like,
1.pgdump not completed the dumping properly,
2.the Backup file is not saved/copied properly, etc??

I believe the dump is OK, but restoring it doesn't work on version 8.1 on
Windows.

A workaround could be to run pg_restore on a 64-bit Unix box, talking
to postgresql server on Windows. That should work around the issue -
since the bug is in pg_dump/pg_restore and not in the backend.

But I second and thid Heikkis recommendation that you need to get off
version 8.1 and onto something more recent as quickly as possible.
