I have instaled a new system and I´m trying to restore my old

It looks like you need to initdb.
Aborted

somebody know what is happing and how can I solve this.

It looks as though you have not enabled the use of the locale pt_BR on
that machine. In some systems, locales must be specifically enabled.
See if you have the program locale-gen on your system.

"When I consider thy heavens, the work of thy fingers,
the moon and the stars, which thou hast ordained; What
is man, that thou art mindful of him? and the son of
man, that thou visitest him? For thou hast made him a
little lower than the angels, and hast crowned him
with glory and honour." Psalms 8:3-5

I did this...
the same error appears :(
and about this error:

Failed to initialize lc_messages to ' '

there is something that I can install to solve this ?
thanks

Find postgresql.conf

Go to the bottom

Remove the locale stuff

Restart

Cheers
