Hi,

then importing an pg_dump result from a 8.1.17 to a 8.4.2 some varchar fields
are not imported and left blank. I've checked the dump file if the fields are
correct dumped and they are.
So it looks like the import is not working as expected.

Any idea what the problem is ?

Kindly regards

Lutz
