moving to 7.2

Hello,

I am putting together a new development environment and have installed
the 7.2 rpms

The database is running, I can log in via pgaccess, I can read from it
with jdbc but I can't log into the secure pages of my webapp.

So I checked the logs to see why pg_hba.conf was playing up

Feb 21 17:41:59 localhost exiting on signal 15
Feb 21 18:25:12 localhost syslogd 1.4-0: restart.
/usr/bin/postmaster does not find the database system.
Expected to find it in the PGDATA directory "/var/lib/pgsql/data",
but unable to open file "/var/lib/pgsql/data/global/pg_control": No
such file or directory

There may be bits of an old install lying around somewhere but I can't
find them. In any case the above is an outright lie because all the
stuff is there in the right places.

Clues???

Cheers

Tony Grant

Did you just upgraded the rpms, or made a clean install?
