Hi,
After doing a pg_dump on a database I'm unable to access the file.
My command is simply 'mv' ::
mv camper.dump20020116 camper_bak/
The error I get is ::
mv: camper.dump20020116: Value too large for defined data type
Strange. It seems to be saying the file I created is too large to handle.
Do you know where I've gone wrong ?
I just want to dump one of my databases, move it to a back up dir. then make changes to the running database.
It looks like you have not a postgres, but filesystem problem. How big is this file? Anyway pg_dump can save filedump in gzip format, which is better for further backuping.
