Hello,

  I received a file to be restored into a new box.

I tried to do a psql -f   and postgres asked me to use pg_restore instead.


Then I used pg_restore and got this error message.

pg_restore -c -v -f Restore.out Cameleon_ewt_20260512.sql

pg_restore: error: unsupported version (1.16) in file header


I am running postgres 16.13 .

How should I handle this issue?

Would be grateful for your inputs.


LG

Ram

Archive version 1.16 was introduced in PostgreSQL v17, so you need
to use at least that version to restore the dump.
