Hi Everybody,

I installed a postgres 8.4.4 onto a centos 5.5 machine and attempted to restore
data from a file made by pg_dumpall.  It didn’t work, it seems.  What I did was 
to
follow the instruction given in INSTALL file which comes with the source 
distribution.
The section Getting Started gives a list and I did all but #5 (createdb testdb 
+ psql testdb).
Instead of #5, I ran the command below:
   gunzip ..../dumpall20100822.0.gz | /usr/local/pgsql/bin/psql -f – postgres
Which terminated with exit status 0.

But when I look at pg_stat_database I don’t see the database I expected.
Can somebody please tell me why this didn’t work?  Also, what must I do to 
successfully
restore the database?

Thank you in advance.

Regards,

Tena Sakai
