[postgis-users] create spatial table problem

[Kralidis,Tom [Burlington]]

Not sure.  I do know that we moved the entire database (via pg_dumpall)
and inserted via psql -f <file> as we moved things across servers.
Everything else seems to be there (PostGIS enabled MapServer apps work).
Maybe the oid thing has to be turned on?  I do know we have these
defined for our previous spatial tables.  How would one enable this?
