Hello
A disk hosting an instance of 8.2 crashed on me (hardware failure). I
was able to pull most of the data off the drive, but the one database
that I need the most is corrupt. I'm not really sure where to
start... so here are some error messages:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/var/log/postgresql$ pg_dum
After doing some more reading I've come to the conclusion that I'm in
completely over my head. I got a fresh copy of the corrupt data and
am starting from the very beginning. Here's the error I get on
startup:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/usr/lib/postgresql/8.2/bin$ ./postgres -D
/var/lib/postgresql/8.2/
I can probably piece everything together enough to
get the data out.
Does that make sense or am I off my rocker?
