Our client got virus on database server encrypting the database. They paid and got files decrypted but database wasn’t able to start.

We got the following error:
2017-07-19 10:31:11 CEST LOG: database system was shut down in recovery at 2017-07-19 10:29:00 CEST
2017-07-19 10:31:11 CEST LOG: invalid magic number B549 in log segment 000000010000002E00000015, offset 0
2017-07-19 10:31:11 CEST LOG: invalid primary checkpoint record
2017-07-19 10:31:11 CEST LOG: invalid magic number B549 in log segment 000000010000002E00000015, offset 0
2017-07-19 10:31:11 CEST LOG: invalid secondary checkpoint record
2017-07-19 10:31:11 CEST PANIC: could not locate a valid checkpoint record
2017-07-19 10:31:11 CEST LOG: shutdown at recovery target
2017-07-19 10:31:11 CEST LOG: shutting down
2017-07-19 10:31:11 CEST LOG: database system is shut down

We got past that with executing the “pg_resetxlog -f DATADIR” command.

Now database starts but we cannot connect to it, we get the following error:
2017-07-19 14:11:05 CEST ERROR: invalid page in block 0 of relation global/12369

Can anyone help?
