Hey gang.

Just did a backup of my DB (DB only), and I am attempting to load it into a PostyGreSQL DB for analysis, however I am getting errors such as those shown in the screenshots. What am I doing wrong?

Kidding aside, you should be able to load the backups directly into a fresh database with `psql` - it might be the tool you’re using doesn’t like the syntax?

What tool are you using and what versions of PG syntax does it support?
