Oh I agree and I will likely do that as I take over this code but wanted to see if I could get the ‘old’ method to work so I can unblock others until I can update the code. I was thinking the same about using the 9.5. 9.2 is the current distribution with CentOS 7.2. -- Sent via pgsql-general mailing list (pgsql-general@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-general
