Did you restart? Did you make sure to select the same install directory and default port as before? (Debian's build of postgres is quite nonstandard in these respects, so it seems likely that you'd need more configure options than you mentioned in order to have a drop-in replacement for a Debian build. But not being a user of Debian's package I'm not the best person to ask for details.) regards, tom lane
