Re: error restarting DB

Database postgresql 8.4

i shutdown the database and restarted database and now its not starting and i m getting this error

 [caesius@dbtest05 pg_log]$ 2014-08-27 14:14:24 PDT   FATAL:  database files are incompatible with server

2014-08-27 14:14:24 PDT   DETAIL:  The database cluster was initialized without HAVE_INT64_TIMESTAMP but the server was compiled with HAVE_INT64_TIMESTAMP.

2014-08-27 14:14:24 PDT   HINT:  It looks like you need to recompile or initdb.

is it possible you have two different builds of the postgres software on this system, and you inadvertently started a different one than the one you've been using ?
