After running intoa problem last week where I cannot rename an
existing
DB because it's reported to not exist (I can attach to it and query
OK,
but rename gives... "database foo does not exist"),
Would you show the results of
select oid,ctid,xmin,xmax,datname from pg_database
as well as the contents of $PGDATA/global/pg_database and a directory
listing of $PGDATA/base?
