Okey, freezed, now launch vacuumdb from command line:
# vacuumdb -a -U postgres
vacuumdb: vacuuming database "postgres"
VACUUM
vacuumdb: vacuuming database "template1"
VACUUM
Opps, template1 must not be vacuumed.
select * from pg_database where datname='template1';
datname | datdba | encoding | datistemplate | datallowconn | datconnlimit
