I've not modified the file in a while, and don't overwrite the existing one when a new one is available. This is a new error for me.
In any case, you should be able to fix it by making a copy of your pre-upgrade pg_hba.conf and shoving that back into the data directory afterwards;
I'll restore a backup copy from last month. Thanks, Rich -- Sent via pgsql-general mailing list (pgsql-general@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-general
