Thread: Error...

Ok, I'm running into this error...

psql: FATAL 1:  The data directory was initialized by PostgreSQL version
7.2, which is not compatible with this version 7.1.3.

when ever I connect to a database from one system to any database on a
couple of other systems we have... All version are 7.2 native... no
upgrades and the data is also 7.2 native... not an upgrade again... but
regardless that one system seems to think that 7.1.3 is installed
somewhere and I've done a thurough check through the system and can not
find any stale files lying arround... Any ideas?

You may think you have installed 7.2, but you are clearly trying to
execute a 7.1.3 server.  Check the PATH used by the start script...
