Now, when running the 9.6 server the following error message shows up

As far as I understand the following remark in the release notes, the
column 'waiting' should not exist:
*
Improve the pg_stat_activity
<https://www.postgresql.org/docs/9.6/static/monitoring-stats.html#PG-STAT-ACTIVITY-VIEW>
view's information about what a process is waiting for (Amit
Kapila, Ildus Kurbangaliev)
Historically a process has only been shown as waiting if it was
waiting for a heavyweight lock. Now waits for lightweight locks
and buffer pins are also shown in pg_stat_activity. Also, the type
of lock being waited for is now visible. These changes replace the
waiting column with wait_event_type and wait_event.
How do I correct this?
are you running some sort of monitoring software thats periodically
looking at pg_stat_activity ? whatever query its doing needs to be
rewritten to take into account the pg_stat_activity changes in 9.6
