[ADMIN] restore from pg_dumpall

2008-03-13 Thread Marc Fromm
When restoring from a pg_dumpall file, is it best to delete the contents of the data folder, run intitdb to recreate it, and then do the command "psql -U postgres -f backupfile postgres"? When I do the restore over top of what is in the data folder already, there are many errors reported. Thanks
