Perhaps you have some nontrivial query in your ~/.psqlrc? If so try taking that out. If that doesn't work you might have to resort to setting zero_damaged_pages in postgresql.conf, but that's a pretty dangerous tool --- it might zap pages you weren't expecting it to. Don't keep it on any longer than you absolutely have to. Once you do get into the DB you should be able to just REINDEX pg_statistic to fix the problem. (In 7.3 you might have to use a standalone backend for that, I don't recall for sure.) > Welcome to psql 7.3.4, the PostgreSQL interactive terminal. Egad. You do know that 7.3 was up to 7.3.21 before we obsoleted it? If your DB is unrecoverable because of some data-eating bug that was fixed in the past four-plus years, you're not going to get a lot of sympathy. regards, tom lane -- Sent via pgsql-admin mailing list (pgsql-admin@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-admin
