Hi list, 

I have a large amount of data in a number of databases on a separate internal drive, under the tablespace  e_drive which normally sits in location E:\postgis. This setup has been been working happily for years. Yesterday I became unable to connect to any of the databases in the e_drive tablespace. I connected to the cluster and ran \db and lo the location is now changed to C for some unknown reason (I haven't upgraded or anything like that). 


​    Name    |  Owner   |  Location
------------+----------+------------
 e_drive    | theowner | C:\postgis​


​I realise that I can't use ALTER TABLESPACE for this, so can I delete the tablespace e_drive and recreate it with the correct location and everything will be fine? 

Or am I going to have to use pg_dumpall and hope I can dump the data out.....​


​Thanks in advance, ​

​Ills​
