Hi,

 

on my system ist:

 

which psql

/usr/bin/psql

postgres@myserver:~$ file /usr/bin/psql

/usr/bin/psql: symbolic link to ../share/postgresql-common/pg_wrapper

file /usr/share/postgresql-common/pg_wrapper

/usr/share/postgresql-common/pg_wrapper: Perl script text executable

 

Regards,

 

Anton

I don't think the size 0 is a problem here.

Try finding psql on your disk with

   find / -xdev -name psql -ls

and check whether one of the files found is an executable with

   file path_of_file

and try it if it is.

Maybe your original psql file was deleted or its length set to zero by
incident. You might as well re-install your client package in order to
repair it.

Holger
