I have a simple question: I have a postGIS installation running on an old computer that I'd like to move. I spent a bunch of time playing with pg_dump and pg_dumpall without success. It seems the normal dump procedures don't work with postGIS because file paths get hard coded in the output from pg_dump. Any suggestions on how to move PostGIS installation to a new installation of PostgreSQL? Thanks, SS |

I'd suggest moving all your data tables into a schema, then dumping just that schema. then you can easily restore not only on a different computer, but into different versions of PostGIS and PostgreSQL. Storing your data in a schema other than "public" is a Best Practice. |
