Some time ago i was working on a database made in Postgresql, i learned to make backups by exporting the database to a .sql file, but i recently found a .backup file with the name of the database that i was working on at that time and i don’t know how to restore the database from that file since Postgresql throw me an error when i try to restore the database. Anyone know anything about this format and how to restore anything in it?
Postgres does have a “custom” format produced by
pg_dump -Fc. Try doingpg_restore -l <filename>and see if it lists the file’s contents.
