Thanks Chetan,
The problem is solved by the below command :- :-)
[postgres@ws-test 8.4SS]$ bin/pg_resetxlog -f
/hdd-1/PostgresPlus/8.4SS/data

Dear all,
Today I by mistake deleted all the contents of pg_log & pg_xlog
directory and my Postgresql refuses to start due to the below error :-

I try to reinstall with the same previous data directory, but it
fails again.
Any suggestions to solve it without losing the previous data.
Thanks & best Regards,
Adarsh Sharma
