[cobalt-users] Need fix for raq3 PostgreSQL - "backend closed the channel unexpectedly"

["Jim Byrne (NTL)" <james.byrne2@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,

I have a raq3 but I have no users or sites showing in my GUI. I tried to fix
with the meta-verify tool - but there seems to be a problem with the
database itself not just the data; I get the error,

"backend closed the channel unexpectedly. This probably means the backend
terminated abnormally before or while processing the request."

I don't want to have to do a full restore of the raq, because it turns out
that the backup service I use backs up the preferences from the GUI database
(and the database is screwed - so no prefs are backed up).

Does anyone have any idea how to fix this problem? If it means re-installing
PostgreSQL I am willing to do that - thought some instruction on how to do
it would be useful.

Thanks,
Jim
