RE: pg_upgrade 10.2 - Mailing list pgsql-general

Jerry,

OMG, I think you nailed this... I know what I did. I cut/pasted the command from an e-mail... I have seen this issue
beforewith stuff not related to postgres. But then those commands failed in syntax error and then you know what you did
wrong.

Similarly, I expect pg_upgrade to throw an error if it finds something it doesn't understand instead of ignoring and
causingdamage. Don't you agree?
 

Thanks for pointing that out. I will redo my upgrade.

-r -v -k -c    --- good flags no utf8
-r -v -k –c    --- bad flags....

I noted in your earlier message the final -c... the dash was not a regular 7bit ascii char but some UTF or whatever
dashchar.
 

I wonder if that's what you fed your shell and it caused a silent parsing issue, eg the -c dropped.

But of course email clients wrap and mangle text like that all sorts of fun ways so lordy knows just what you
originallysent :-)
 

FWIW
