and it turns that
psql: could not connect to server: No such file or directoryIs the server running locally and acceptingconnections on Unix domain socket "/var/run/postgresql/.s.PGSQL.5432"?
so basically i just moved the whole pgsql8.3.2 that i had to a new folder
which is pgsql.old with sudo mv etc,etc
but i can not turn on the 8.3 server, i did try to start the new one (9.2.4)
and yes i can.

Does the file
/var/run/postgresql/.s.PGSQL.5432.lock exist on the system you're trying to upgrade ? If so, what's inside (cat it), does it point to your /usr/local/pgsql.old/data directory? I've found that in my (limited) experience with pg_upgrade, it's good to run the upgrade from /tmp directory, that way the lock file gets created there and usually there's no write permission problems in /tmp either :)
