Hi,

Is there any way to reconstruct database from data
files that are present in
/var/lib/pgsql/data/<database oid folders>

Actually I upgraded to new version of postgres (7.4)
but again reverted back to older version (7.2) after
uninstalling new version.

How can I make the new install of older version
recognize old databases.

I did not take any standard backups with pg_dump. So
the only data files I have, are the files that are
created when you create database, tables etc.

Help is urgently needed and appreciated.

Thanks,
Akanksha
