If you mean that the PostgreSQL database server crashed and will no longer start up, then you would need to provide the messages PostgreSQL prints to its log files when it tries and fails to start up. If you mean that the server computer its self crashed, and you now have a PostgreSQL data directory (from backups or recovered from the server's hard disk) then if the PostgreSQL data directory is undamaged it should be possible to use it. You will need to use it with a version of PostgreSQL with the same minor version as the one you were using on the server, eg if you were using 8.1.4 you should get the latest PostgreSQL in the 8.1 series (NOT 8.2 or 8.3) to try to read the data. Make a copy first. -- Craig Ringer
