Hi, ALL,

I just lost the pg_control file, located in /usr/local/pgsql/data/global

I was making only backups one time a day, and I can't lost the entry
day...

All the data files are intact (I gess) in PG_DATA directory.

I start a new INITDB after rename the PG_DATA directory to another name,
but if I copy the pg_control file to real data directory, I receive a
"NO FILE POINTER ERROR"...

Please, can I recover from this crash using the files in /data/base
directory ???


regards,

Tulio Oliveira
