Hi,
Looks like, you accidentally deleted the postgresql database.
It can work without the postgres database, you just need to specify the database name to work with.
i.e. psql test1

hi,Ashesh, i did as you said ,it still gives problem. information from the terminal is following:
" postgres@guo-desktop:~$ psql -l
psql: FATAL: database "postgres" does not exist
What is the output of this command:
psql -l template1
postgres@guo-desktop:~$ psql --version
psql (PostgreSQL) 8.4.4
contains support for command-line editing
postgres@guo-desktop:~$
"
it's kind of contradictory.and also in the phppgadmin interface i can't find the postgres either.
That's strange.
