I am currently upgrading a Postgres cluster running on a Centos machine from version 9.6.22 to 12.7. Post the install of 12.7 binaries, I am running the pg_upgrade command:
/usr/pgsql-12/bin/pg_upgrade -b /usr/pgsql-9.6/bin/ -B /usr/pgsql-12/bin/ -d /<path>/9.6/data.old -D /<path>/12/data/ -j 12 -r -v -k But, I am getting multiple errors during the "Restoring database schemas in the new cluster" step: pg_restore: creating TABLE "schema1.table1" pg_restore: creating TABLE "schema1.table2" pg_restore: creating TABLE "schema1.table3" pg_restore: while PROCESSING TOC: pg_restore: from TOC entry 358; 1259 793395 TABLE table3 postgres pg_restore: error: could not execute query: FATAL: terminating connection due to administrator command server closed the connection unexpectedly This probably means the server terminated abnormally before or while processing the request. Command was:-- For binary upgrade, must preserve pg_type oidSELECT pg_catalog.binary_upgrade_set_next_pg_type_oid('793397'::pg_catalog.oid); -- For binary upgrade, must preserve pg_type array oidSELECT pg_catalog.binary_upgrade_set_next_array_pg_type_oid('793396'::pg_catalog.oid); -- For binary upgrade, must preserve pg_class oidsSELECT pg_catalog.binary_upgrade_set_next_heap_pg_class_oid('793395'::pg_catalog.oid); CREATE TABLE "schema1"."table3" ( "date_key" integer NOT NULL, "col1" character varying(32), "col2" character varying(32), "col3" character varying(32) NOT NULL ); -- For binary upgrade, set heap's relfrozenxid and relminmxidUPDATE pg_catalog.pg_classSET relfrozenxid = '1491955518', relminmxid = '1'WHERE oid = '"schema1"."table3"'::pg_catalog.regclass; Another log file: pg_restore: creating TABLE "schema99.table1" pg_restore: creating SEQUENCE "schema99.sequence1" pg_restore: creating SEQUENCE OWNED BY "schema99.sequence1" pg_restore: creating TABLE "schema99.table2" pg_restore: creating SEQUENCE "schema99.sequence2" pg_restore: creating SEQUENCE OWNED BY "schema99.sequence2" pg_restore: creating SEQUENCE "schema99.sequence2" pg_restore: while PROCESSING TOC: pg_restore: from TOC entry 347; 1259 1949074 SEQUENCE sequence2 postgres pg_restore: error: could not execute query: ERROR: relation "sequence2" already exists Command was:-- For binary upgrade, must preserve pg_class oidsSELECT pg_catalog.binary_upgrade_set_next_heap_pg_class_oid('1949074'::pg_catalog.oid); -- For binary upgrade, must preserve pg_type oidSELECT pg_catalog.binary_upgrade_set_next_pg_type_oid('1949075'::pg_catalog.oid); CREATE SEQUENCE "schema99"."sequence2" START WITH 1 INCREMENT BY 1 NO MINVALUE NO MAXVALUE CACHE 1; Restore command from the logs: "/usr/pgsql-12/bin/pg_restore" --host /var/lib/pgsql --port 50432 --username postgres --create --exit-on-error --verbose --dbname template1 "pg_upgrade_dump_16405.custom" >> "pg_upgrade_dump_16405.log" 2>&1 Similarly, at each run a different dump file fails ( pg_upgrade_dump_16405.custom/pg_upgrade_dump_16404.custom). Has anyone faced similar issues during upgrade to Postgres 12.7? There isn't much in the pg_upgrade_server.log file. It looks like the server starts and stops for the old and new data files. pg_upgrade_server.log file - textuploader.com/ta9o3 Under /<path>/12/data/log. I see these lines: ``` LOG: background worker "logical replication launcher" (PID 35687) exited with exit code 1 LOG: shutting down LOG: database system is shut down LOG: database system was shut down at 2021-07-30 01:33:51 GMT LOG: database system is ready to accept connections ERROR: relation "sequence2" already exists ``` I am getting an error even after only initDB and running upgrade. Any suggestions on what could be going wrong? Thanks in advance!
