You are experiencing catalog corruption. Try stopping the cluster and starting it with postgres -P -D /path/to/data/dir Then connect and run REINDEX TABLE pg_catalog.pg_class; That should fix the corrupted index. If you have data corruption, you shouldn't use pg_upgrade to upgrade. pg_dumpall / psql is the way to go. Yours, Laurenz Albe -- Cybertec | https://www.cybertec-postgresql.com
