Thread: pg_restore "WARNING: errors ignored on restore"

So when restoring a particular DB with pg_restore, I get "WARNING: 
errors ignore on restore".  Is there a way to dump a list of those errors?


#  /usr/local/bin/pg_restore8.3 -d SUP-3067  -h 192.168.1.93 -p 5433 -U 
postgres -L toc_with_parts_commented_out.txt -v production_db.dump.20091016
....

All such errors should have been reported on stderr already.
I imagine the chatter from -v is distracting you ... try dropping
that switch.

try using pg_restore ...... 2>errors.txt

That would create the errors.txt file, with everything that is writen to
STDERR (ussualy errors and warnings)
