Where does PostgreSQL store the database?

Question

Where are the files for a PostgreSQL database stored?

Answer 1

On Windows7 all the databases are referred by a number in the file named pg_database under C:\Program Files (x86)\PostgreSQL\8.2\data\global. Then you should search for the folder name by that number under C:\Program Files (x86)\PostgreSQL\8.2\data\base. That is the content of the database.
