our postgres server died yesterday and i need to retrieve the data from
that server to another one. the server was running postgres 6.5 and i need
to move it to another server also using postgres 6.5.
i am unable to do a pg_dumpall for some reason, so i was wondering if i
copy the data directory from server to another, will the new server be able
to read the data and i can dump the data?
any help would be appreciated.
