Hi,
I was working with pg7.1 on RedHat 7.1. But, unfortunately, while updating
RedHat9 I forgot to pg_dump my data files written with pg7.1.

pg7.1 doesnt seem to compile on redhat 9.

so i installed pg7.3.4 on RedHat 9, copied my earlier files into the new
data directory under pgsql and tried to open it. But, I got the
error message Version mismatch, I just changed the contents of
PG_VERSION to 7.3 from 7.1 and then I get this new message that
PG_CONTROL_VERSION mismatch exists. Some pointers point to
contrib/pg_resetxlog...could somebody give me more precise information
where to find this utility and would it work for my situation.

Any help is greatly appreciated !

PIYUSH.
