Tom & Kevin,
Thanks for your reply. I guess I get this error because there are two versi=
ons of postgreSQL installed on the same machine.
Regards,
Pooja

Just so the OP is aware, running pg_ctl with the restart option is generall=
y not adequate to prevent problems with an update, in place or not. The po=
stmaster must be stopped and then started. Some service scripts may do tha=
t, others don't. So the safe thing, unless you know exactly how your servi=
ce script is written, is to stop and then start again.
