Re: Trying to pg_restore a 7.1.3 db into 7.3.4 - stalling at 100%

Gaetano,

er, shedloads of this....

read(0, "", 4096)                       = 0
read(0, "", 4096)                       = 0
read(0, "", 4096)                       = 0
read(0, "", 4096)                       = 0
read(0, "", 4096)                       = 0
read(0, "", 4096)                       = 0
read(0, "", 4096)                       = 0
read(0, "", 4096)                       = 0
read(0, "", 4096)                       = 0
read(0, "", 4096)                       = 0
read(0, "", 4096)                       = 0


methinks thats not a good sign?
