So I have my 8.4.4-6 databases backed up. I don't know if I needed the
default 'postgres' database dumped but I did that one too just in
case. I then upgraded the server to 9.0.1-2 and my question is how do
you create a new database in PostgeSQL 9.0 coming from 8.4.4-6 when
the server refuses to start. I can't connect to PostgreSQL simply
because the logs tell me the data is not compatible. Am I missing
something?
