Hi, my linux machine crushed and my postgresql 6.5 database was corrupted.
I have /var/lib/pgsql/data intact, When I reinstalled Linux in a new machine, Can I copy this directory back in the new postgresql database, and will it work, because I have tried to do that but it did not work. Note: I had not backed my data so no pg_dump done , how else can I recover the data please do advice, I have /var/lib/pgsql/data directory which contains the databases, but how do I make the databases work please do assist thanks again Kind Regards Martin Wainaina Kuria Programmer/Database Administrator Bsc.
