How did you upgrade, dump/restore or pg_upgrade?
Adrian,
Ran 'pg_dumpall -c -f <filename>.sql' prior to doing anything. Then built,
installed the new version, upgraded rc.postgresql (only differences were
version numbers), and ran 'pg_upgrade ...' with the appropriate binary and
data directory paths.
What is in rc.postgresql? Is there maybe another start script in etc/ for
the new version?
Nope. One script per application.
