problems dumping

Hello,

I have a problem dumping with 7.2.3. When I do a pg_dumpall redirecting this
to a file I have >40000 lines of schema and data. Running psql template1 <
<dumpfile> the databases get partially created, i.e the schema is completely
there but data even of the big tables is missing. The dumpfile itself has
only 150k lines left. It used to work before I upgraded to 7.2.3. Any
explainations ?
I also did a " pg_dumpall -C -F p -f test2 -v". I can see the file test2
growing and I can see the schema an the data written in there. It all looks
fine. When the command is finished the shrinks drastically and the data seems
to be gone. Does anybody know the phenomena ?

bash-2.03$ ls -al
