In fact, it seems that there is no backup of this DB, but I've noticed
when I make a vacuumdb on the database, I see all the tables names that
appears on the vacuumdb output (verbose mode)...

But, after that vacuumdb, if I connect using psql to the database and
making \d, I'm still having the same error message : "Couldn't find any
tables, sequences or indices!".

Do you think that all the data is lost ?

If I success to recover theses datas, I will move them to a 7.3.3
database. In all case, I will urge the system administrator to install
the 7.3.3 PostgreSQL version.

Thanks really much for your help !
