I launched a backup using the pgAdmin III utility. I chose the TAR option with BLOBs. I received the following messages: pg_dump: dumping content of table face pg_dump: (tar archiver) actual file length (-760496003) does not match expected (-760496003) pg_dump: *** aborted because of error Process returned exit code 1 My question would be: what is happenning with the face table which I just vaccuumed and reindexed before I launched the backup? I have to say that this table contain a blob field and is quite huge (5 million rows) Thanks
