Thanks for your reply,

In fact the database problem_track comes with a software.

I have done a createdb, because I though the createdb was already done
because in data/base there is a directory problem_track with a lot of
files - one of these is staff for example :

file staff :  staff: data

I have tried a createdb problem_track : now psql problem_track exists
for pl_sql but no tables are inside whereas they are in
data/base/problem_track.

Any ideas ?

Thank you

Laurent
