Hi

I am using the following

 pgsql2shp -f Test.shp -u postgres -P London2342 -k PDW p_id.image -g the_geom

to export a shape file from postgis.

Even tho I specify a single geometry column to be exported I get warnings that column names have been truncated.

Command prompt also informs me that "No prj file will be generated"

Also a warning 'cannot determine spatial reference". I thought the default was -1?

I also get messages-
 "Done (postgis major version: 1)
Output shape: Polyline
Dumping: xx [8 rows]"

What am I doing wrong???

Bob
