Hi
I want to restore a large database (5GB) from a backup (dump postgresql)
When the process arrive to the largest table, it stops with this output

"pg_restore: [custom archiver] could not uncompress data: too many length or
distance symbols"

i do the dump with "pg_dump -Fc"

Does someone have an idea on this?

Thank you

Regards,
Fida

Hm.  Either you have a corrupt dump file, or you've found a bug in zlib.
I'd bet on the former myself.

Hi

Thank you for your answer.
I'm trying again with another dump.
By the way I'm working on ubuntu server 8.04  ,postgresql 8.4.2.

Regards

Fida
