Am backing up daily my DB with pg_dump. The strange issue is that when I try to restore it with psql, errors are thrown. After opening the dump file with vim and analyzing the line that is causing the error, it is clear that there is some C source code being written to the file. Not only one, but chunks of them.
How could this happen? Any way to avoid it?
The dump is done through the postgresql webmin module.
I'm using PostgreSQL 9.3.
pg_dump
command line you use, exactly. If you runpg_dump
directly instead of via webmin, what happens?
