Dear Community,
Postgres has been suddenly shut off and we are unable to log on:
The error message we get at the unix prompt when starting
postmaster is:
/usr/local/bin/postmaster does not know where to find the da
tabase system data. You must specify the directory that contains
the database s
ystem either by specifying the -D invocation option or by setting
the PGDATA env
ironment variable.
No data directory -- can't proceed.
Please help. A mission critical application is held up.
Thanks in advance.
Kimi
