The following bug has been logged on the website:
Bug reference: 13702
Logged by: Felipe Gasper
Email address: felipe@felipegasper.com
PostgreSQL version: Unsupported/Unknown
Operating system: Linux
Description:
For the purposes of an administrative frontend that I help develop/maintain,
I have a database named:
--------------
abcde_1234567890-=~!@#$%^&*()_+[]\{}|;:?,.<b><b> spaces
--------------
When I try to back up this DB via pg_dump, the utility appears to split the
DB name on the “=”, thinking that it’s another command-line option.
I’ve tried passing in “--”, but no joy. I tried passing “--dbname” then the
DB name, but pg_dump doesn’t seem to accept that argument.
"--dbname=..." Documented 9.3 and above
The only working solution I have found is to set the DB name in PGDATABASE.
I found this in 9.0.18. Maybe it’s still a problem in supported releases,
too?
It was decided to make the database name in this situation be an abstract concept as opposed to strictly referring to a named database. Because of this the equal sign has a special meaning that, apparently, cannot be overridden.
You may want to consider URI format - the following appears to work (9.3 tested)
psql postgres:///db=123
>psql: FATAL: database "db=123" does not exist
