This has not been a good day. This is a site that I had earlier problems with that were due to my screwing up an attempt to replicate the database to another server. These problems later resulted in filling the disk and then breaking postgres altogether. Now I’m trying to restore to a different database server. Backup was taken on a recent discourse on a PG10 server and restoring to PG12.
When I attempt to restore, it fails with
ERROR: function "post_replies_sync_reply_id" already exists with same argument types
EXCEPTION: psql failed: ERROR: function "post_replies_sync_reply_id" already exists with same argument types

I see a couple migrations back in January that have post_replies_sync_reply_id in them, so perhaps this is not related to my own botched database issues.
EDIT: I solved the problem for this database by deleting the database, doing a psql < backup-file.sql, but I’ve got a few others that I need to restore still.
