Pgsql2shp: Dumping: XWKB structure does not match expected size!

[jomarlla]

Pgsql2shp creates a wrong shape file.

At least the dbf file is corrupted:

Sorry I couldnt find out the row which is producing the problem so I uploaded the whole layer.

I got the same problem with r8870

There's a null geometry in there (gid == 60) , which is where it dies, not clear why yet. On its own pgsql2shp handles it fine. Without the null, pgsql2shp works. With just one non-null, everything works still.

Fixed in trunk at r8972
