Right, I should have been clearer: you can't run a 32-bit database image with a 64-bit Postgres executable. Most 64-bit operating systems can still execute 32-bit executables, though, so you can get there by running a 32-bit PG on your shiny new 64-bit machine. regards, tom lane -- Sent via pgsql-general mailing list (pgsql-general@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-general
