Re: Steps to Install archived Postgres 9.3 and 9.6 - Mailing list pgsql-admin

Are you really sure that your application software (Jira) is incompatible with current PostgreSQL versions?

Please make a test whether it works. It might very well do.

In most cases, not only the approved PostgreSQL versions work fine with application software, but also all younger versions.

Backward compatibility is very high.

Thanks all. This really helps. Will let you know if any issues.

Hi,

We have a requirement where we need to migrate Oracle to Postgres. However the current version of Application JIRA is 6 and it is not compatible with Postgres 11. We need to do an incremental upgrade like below.

1. Migrate Oracle 11g to Postgres 9.3.

2. Upgrade JIRA 6 to 7.

3. Upgrade Postgres 9.3 to 9.6.

4. Upgrade JIRA 7 to 7.x

5. Upgarde Postgres 9.6 to 11.

6. Upgrade JIRA 7.x to 8.x

Does anyone have steps to install PG 9.3 and 9.6. I know it is not supported anymore but we are stuck with this approach. Please help :(

Regards,

Aditya.
