Here is what I did:
- We are using the remote windows backup server to backup instances from Linux machines
- I just downloaded the zip package of postgres and took the bin directory to any place and provided that directory in advanced tab of connection
- After that I tried to backup and got
11/5/2019 12:55:32 PM [Error] Failed to backup “postgres” database with “Full” backup type: C:\Users\michael.hi\Downloads\postgresql-12.0-1-windows-x64-binaries\pgsql\bin\pg_dump.exe process has finished with “1” code. The error message: “C:\Users\michael.hi\Downloads\postgresql-12.0-1-windows-x64-binaries\pgsql\bin\pg_dump.exe: illegal option – oids
Try “pg_dump --help” for more information.”.
- I unticked the object identifiers option and everything worked like a charm.
The question is: is it the bug or feature
