Hello,

Postgres is started via pg_ctl and NOT systemd.
Below are the log entries when version 9.6.2-1 is started.

Upgraded to version 9.6.2-2 and these are the log entries on start-up:-

What repos are you using, the Debian or the PGDG one?

I guess the question I should really ask is, are you using a repo or some other method to upgrade?

It is ignoring the PGDATA path and obtaining postgresql.conf from
/etc/postgresql/9.6/main.

Removed all the Postgres conf files from the /etc path and it is back
working as intended.


Is this just something the Debian package maintainers have done or do
we have to alter the start-up scripts to specify the config_file
setting?

The doco says "By default, all three configuration files are stored in
the database cluster's data directory." which IMHO means where PGDATA
is pointing.

That is packaging dependent. When using the Debian/Ubuntu postgresql-common system the postgresql.conf will be in /etc/postgresql/version/cluster_name/


Has anybody else struck this issue?

Cheers,
Rob
