Thread: Data
I had an access violation which corrupted the PostgreSQL server to the point that it would not open.
I took the opportunity to upgrade to version 8.1.
Is there a way of retreiving the project in the old version and opening it in the new version without reinstalling the 8.0 version for a pgdump?

The 8.0 server needs to be running in order for pg_dump to make a connection and retrieve the data.. Transferring the binary files will not work because of the version difference. Even if you could copy the files I would hesitate because of the corruption issue. -- Adrian Klaver aklaver@comcast.net
