What happens when you update from your data dump (pg_dumpall) 
that you do to backup your data? You did do a pg_dumpall before 
you did the update? I don't think it is required to upgrade from 7.1.2 
to 7.1.3.

What happens when you run version 7.1.2 and access the data? 
/home2/pgsql /home2/pgsql-7.1.2/postmaster -D 
/home2/pgsql/data -i &

This should run your old version of posgresql, then you could run 
pg_dump for the database ( /home2/pgsql 
/home2/pgsql-7.1.2/pg_dump **database here** > backup.out)     
and use this to populate your new setup. I  see that from your startup 
you are not saving the output of postgres to a file so there is no way 
to look at the log.
