Did you actually copy or symlink?


Now when I start with pg_ctl
2013-02-22 18:36:13 EST DETAIL:  The database subdirectory
"base/1066060" is missing.
2013-02-22 18:36:25 EST FATAL:  database "wormmine" does not exist

2013-02-22 18:37:13 EST FATAL:  database "wormmine-dev" does not exist

and it won't start...

How can I fix this?  re-creating these databases with the old postgres
didn't work...

Also, why did this happen?  I created a new data directory for the new
postgres, this should be impossible....

It happened so it was not impossible. You sure you deleted from the old directory?


I have no ideas left, can anyone help?

Thanks in advance,
