Hello All,
I am in a fix and need help. I am reinstalling postgresql server on my
linux workstation and\ I did a filesystem backup of ../pgsql/data/*, but
when I deleted the data directory and reconstructed it from my backup
(without the reinstall, just to check if things would work) I started
seeing errors (I mv' the data directory twice...)
The first error was "postmaster.opt.default not found in
../pgsql/data/postmaster.opt.default' and when I created an empty file
it said '../pgsql/data/base/template1/pg_class not found'.
Am I missing something? are there any other steps to a filesystem
backup?
