In AWS you need to use –dbname, not –d.

AWS postgres is their own, they have rewritten Postgres to their needs, you need to use AWS Postgres commands, not regular Postgres command.  Some work, some don’t.

Hi Matt,
I tried this approach. It is generating error when I am using the format of < filename with pg_restore.

Database location: aws/rds
Client where I am running pg-dump and pg-restore is from Windows  laptop.

Thanks,
Sarwar

Hi Scott,

When I tried to add -f in the pg_restore clause, it is generating error.

I tried to use another clause --file=file-name which is also generating errors.



PS H:\> pg_restore -F t -v -h bronxdb1.c52p1f6zjuib.us-gov-west-1.rds.amazonaws.com -U db_sarwar -d bronxdb1 -t 'bronxdev.errors' --file=C:\Mohammed\Work\NGC\Apps\Bronx\Backups\Dumps\data\backup_Dev_Bronxdev-Errors_20231024-5.DUMP

pg_restore: error: options -d/--dbname and -f/--file cannot be used together

Try "pg_restore --help" for more information.

PS H:\>



Thanks,

Sarwar

You're missing the -f on the pg_restore to take the dump from a file, so it's sitting waiting for SQL to come via stdin.
