help... lost database after upgrade from 9.0 to 9.1
Hello!
just made a stupid move... upgraded a working system.... and without
checking if the backup was ok....
so i end up with a debian system having upgraded to 9,1 without
converting the database, and a scrambled backup which is totally
unusable....
i tried to start the old tree with
pg_ctlcluster 9.0 main start
Error: could not exec start -D /var/lib/postgresql/9.0/main -l
+/var/log/postgresql/postgresql-9.0-main.log -s -o -c
+config_file="/etc/postgresql/9.0/main/postgresql.conf" :
so i tried to copy the old 9.0 tree to a machine with a still working 9,0
postgres, but it stops with
Starting PostgreSQL 9.0 database server: mainError: could not exec
/usr/lib/postgresql/9.0/bin/pg_ctl /usr/lib/postgresql/9.0/bin/pg_ctl
start -D /var/lib/postgresql/9.0/main -l
/var/log/postgresql/postgresql-9.0-main.log -s -o -c
config_file="/etc/postgresql/9.0/main/postgresql.conf" : ... failed!
failed!
so what can i do to extract the data of that tree and feed it into the
9.1 tree?
thanks in avance!

Look at the PostgreSQL logs to see why it failed to start. Probably
permissions. See:
