    Hello Lou,<br>
    <br>
    much thanks for you tip !!!<br>
    I found on the web the tool DLL-Files Fixer. This installed my
    LIBEAX32.dll and i was able to do a reinstall of PostgreSQL 8.2.1. <br>
    But now i have a last problem related to PostgreSQL:<br>
    To keep my databases, i made a copy of the hole PostgreSQL-Folder
    before reinstallation (PostgtreSQL-Server service was not running).<br>
    <ul>
      <li>I cleared the folder <b>data</b>, because the PostgreSQL
        installation adviced me to do.</li>
      <li>I installed PostgreSQL 8.2.1</li>
      <li>After installation PostgtreSQL-Server service was running and
        i could start PGAdminIII.</li>
      <li>I stopped the PostgtreSQL-Server service </li>
      <li>I restored the backup of the folder <b>data </b>(to get my
        databases back)</li>
      <li>But starting now PostgtreSQL-Server service does not work
        anymore. I get an error message after a while (Error 1053)</li>
    </ul>
    Do you have any tips how i can get my databases back ?<br>
    <br>
    Thanks for your assistance,<br>
    Josef Springer<br>

        <div>Though my German is weak(!), you're getting a sort of
          non-PostgreSQL error message there. LIBEAY32.DLL is part of
          the DLL dependency chain required for PostgreSQL's SSL
          support. (This DLL may have been the file damaged by your
          drive sector errors?) You may be able to solve your problems
          simply by replacing this file...</div>
        <div><br>
        </div>
        <div>Meanwhile, if you need to recover data - and if you can be
          assured of a secure, perhaps local-only(?) client connection
          to your cluster: Would be to turn off SSL in postgresql.conf.
          Of course, you'd want to also restrict access to the cluster
          with the data thus exposed.</div>
        <div><br>
        </div>
        <div>But it sounds like you don't have any fundamental problem
          with PostgreSQL itself; just with SSL.</div>

          Hello everybody,<br>
          <br>
          Windows-Vista 32Bit, PostgreSQL 8.2.1<br>
          <br>
          After the reparation of a bad sector on the disk, the
          PostgreSQL-Server did not start anymore.<br>
          I decided to reinstall 8.2.1.<br>
          The installer says "LIBEAY32.DLL konnte nicht geladen werden:
          193. Das Installationsprogramm kann nicht auf eine passende
          bereits installierte OpenSLL.Version pr&uuml;fen"<br>
          I must use my existing databases (folder data) !<br>
          <br>
          Can anybody help me ?<br>
          <div class="moz-signature">
