    Hello Harald,<br>
    <br>
    the server-service worked after resinstalling PostgreSQL correctly.<br>
    But after coipying back the backup of the folder <b>data</b>, the
    server-service does not start anymore.<br>
    What i have done:<br>
    <ul>
      <li>Term server-service</li>
      <li>Copying back the backup of the folder <b>data</b></li>
      <li>Starting the server-service (whitch does not start)</li>
    </ul>
    So, i assume i missed something copying back, but the server must
    not be receated.<br>
    Do you have any idea ?<br>
    <br>
    Thanks for assistance,<br>
    Josef Springer<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>

                          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>

                          fundamental problem with PostgreSQL itself;
                          just with SSL.</div>

          <div>If you are able to start the PostgreSQL server manually
            i.e from pg_ctl then the problem with your service.</div>
          <div><br>
          </div>
          <div>You can recreate that service with following command</div>
          <div><br>
            pg_ctl register  [-N SERVICENAME] [-U USERNAME] [-P
            PASSWORD] [-D DATADIR]</div>

          </div>
          <div>after creating service try to start the service you have
