Here is the output of my last test run: [pgsql@postgres-93-upgrade ~]$ time pg_upgrade -b /home/jkregloh/pg_bin/ -B /usr/local/bin/ -d /home/jkregloh/pg_data/data -D /usr/local/pgsql/data/ -p 5452 -P 5451 Performing Consistency Checks ----------------------------- Checking cluster versions ok Checking database user is a superuser ok Checking for prepared transactions ok Checking for reg* system OID user data types ok Checking for contrib/isn with bigint-passing mismatch ok Creating dump of global objects ok Creating dump of database schemas ok Checking for presence of required libraries ok Checking database user is a superuser ok Checking for prepared transactions ok
If pg_upgrade fails after this point, you must re-initdb the new cluster before continuing. Performing Upgrade ------------------ Analyzing all rows in the new cluster ok Freezing all rows on the new cluster ok Deleting files from new pg_clog ok Copying old pg_clog to new server ok Setting next transaction ID for new cluster ok Setting oldest multixact ID on new cluster ok Resetting WAL archives ok Setting frozenxid counters in new cluster ok Restoring global objects in the new cluster ok Adding support functions to new cluster ok Restoring database schemas in the new cluster ok Removing support functions from new cluster ok Copying user relation files ...l/data/drupal_dbspace/PG_9.0_201008051/2752430/10913518 error while copying relation "pg_catalog.pg_largeobject" ("/usr/local/pgsql/data/drupal_dbspace/PG_9.0_201008051/2752430/10913518" to "/usr/local/pgsql/data/drupal_dbspace/PG_9.3_201306121/16499/12301"): No such file or directory Failure, exiting real 2m10.913s user 0m5.691s sys 0m10.525s -------------------------- Listing of that directory in the 9.0 folder: [pgsql@postgres-93-upgrade ~]$ ls -la /home/jkregloh/pg_data/data/drupal_dbspace/ total 19 drwx------ 4 pgsql pgsql 4 Jun 8 2013 . drwx------ 38 pgsql pgsql 46 Dec 19 20:18 .. drwx------ 4 pgsql pgsql 4 Oct 20 2011 PG_9.0_201008051 -------------------------- Listing of that directory in the 9.3 folder: [pgsql@postgres-93-upgrade ~]$ ls -ls /usr/local/pgsql/data/drupal_dbspace/ total 4 4 drwx------ 3 pgsql pgsql 3 Dec 19 20:18 PG_9.3_201306121 So what I get from this is that it does create the correct 9.3 files in the new location, however it cannot copy the relation over because the old data is in the /home/jkregloh/pg_data/data/drupal_dbspace/ not in /usr/local/pgsql/data/drupal_dbspace/ as the pg_upgrade query tries to do. -Joseph On Thu, Dec 19, 2013 at 12:02 PM, Ziggy Skalski <zskal...@afilias.info>wrote: > On 13-12-19 11:34 AM, Joseph Kregloh wrote: > > Hello, > > I am trying to upgrade from 9.0.14 to 9.3.
