To all,
I just applied the v8.2.7 upgrade (from v8.2.6) on and FC8 server via yum. The upgrade went OK, but the /var/lib/pgsql directory (with the existing data) was renamed to /var/lib/pgsql.old and a new (and empty) /var/lib/pgsql directory was created.
Does anyone know why this would have happened?
The particular machine is an FC8, dual core AMD DELL with 4GB RAM running the x86_64 pg binaries.
I applied the same update (v8.2.6->8.2.7) to an FC7 Pentium4 box running the 32-bit pg binaries and did not have to rename the /var/lib/pgsql directories.
Has anyone else run into this?
Thanks, in advance,
Gord
