to move the database
Postgresql does not do in-place upgrade of databases .
use pgdump from postgres 8.3 when backing up 8.1 database
Install postgresql 8.3 create the database then restore the backed up
database to 8.3
if you are still having problems go to the postgresql mailing list
http://www.postgresql.org/community/lists/
pgsql-general is the one you want, it has the most traffic and people
are very helpful.
Postgresql also has a wiki
http://wiki.postgresql.org/wiki/Main_Page

I'm in the middle of a server migration, and
decided to upgrade my instance of mediawiki and postgres to versions 1.15.1 and 8.3.8
(stock SLES11 version) respectively. pg_dumps, restores, and db admin is nothing new to
me, but I can't for the life of me get my instance (MW 1.9.3 and pg 8.1.11) into the
new postgres. I've even tried moving from 8.1 to 8.2 as an intermediate step before
going to 8.3. Nothing is working for me. Can someone clarify the steps for me? I have
read the Manual:Upgrading_Postgres page.
