Обсуждение: BUG #3950: Server Problems
The following bug has been logged online: Bug reference: 3950 Logged by: Wolvesden Email address: c_william04@msn.com PostgreSQL version: 8.3 Operating system: Windows XP Description: Server Problems Details: For some reason when I upgraded to 8.3 I can't get the server to start. What it keeps telling me is as Follows: pg_ctrl: another server might be running; trying to start server anyway FATAL: unreconized configuration parameter "redirect_stderr" Not sure what this means but I know I was using this database for three years and now all of a sudden I can't get into it.

I speculate that you didn't bother with a dump and reload, either. You can't just install 8.3 over 8.2 without a dump and reload --- see the fine manual concerning upgrading to a new major release. regards, tom lane
