I want to develop an application in PostgreSQL but when starting the service I get the following message:
An old version of the database format was found. You need to upgrade the data format before using PostgreSQL. See /usr/share/doc/postgresql-8.1.4/README.rpm-dist for more information.
I am running Fedora Core 5 but initially had built the system with Fedora Core 3, with PostgreSQL installed and automatically updated it over the past 2 years. I may have created a test database 2 years ago which may be the source of the problem. Is this the source of the problem? I could find nothing in README.rpm-dist that helps.
I would appreciate any advice on how to deal with this problem.
