Two upgrades this weekend ...

From
"Marc G. Fournier"
Date:
I need to perform two upgrades this weekend:
  pgfoundry.org  pugs.postgresql.org

We've been having an odd issue with our 64bit servers of late, and we've 
been slowly eliminating potential problems.  Right now, I am working on 
eliminating a potential issue with running FreeBSD 6.x VPS/libraries on 
the FreeBSD 7.x servers, something that all three of our current 64bit 
servers have in varying degrees.
  Both pgfoundry.org and pugs.postgresql.org are running FreeBSD 6.x ports 
/ libraries, so I will be upgrade them to proper 7.x VPSs.
  The downtime tends to vary, but will be at least 2hrs each, and I will 
do them sequentially .
  No config files will be changed, only the binaries upgraded / recompiled 
to be proper "native 7.x binaries" ...

Thanks for the heads up... any chance you can email pgsql-www when the 
downtime begins (and optionally when it is done) ?

it might also be important to mention that depending on what the 
definition of "binaries upgraded" is that our version of gforge might 
not work with certain newer stuff...

I'm going to duplicate pgfoundry *before* do the upgrade, so that if it 
does fail completely, I can revert back to the 6.x version quickly ...

And yes, will send out a notice both before, and when completed ...

I am starting this on pgfoundry.org right now ... the procedure is very 
simple (but longish):

shutdown VPS
use rsync to create a duplicate
upgrade OS to 7.x
restart VPS
upgrade all ports to 7.x
restart VPS to ensure all services restart

I won't be going to bed until it is finished, so there will be no delays 
for rebuilding the ports themselves ...

Okay, everything *appears* to be fine ... only concern I have is mailman, 
as I don't know how to test that, but it *looks* like postfix is 
processing emails properly ...

Please go through and let me know, as I said, worst case, we have to 
revert back to the 6.x format, but would prefer to resolve any issues vs 
just switch back ...

Marc,

I noticed commit mail message changes. If this intentional?
At least this is slightly different from the one in PostgreSQL main
source CVS.

Before:   pgpool-II/doc:       pgpool-en.html (r1.35.2.1 -> r1.35.2.2)
(http://cvs.pgfoundry.org/cgi-bin/cvsweb.cgi/pgpool/pgpool-II/doc/pgpool-en.html.diff?r1=1.35.2.1&r2=1.35.2.2)

Now:
Modified Files:
--------------   pgpool-II:       pool.h (r1.36 -> r1.36.2.1)
(http%3A%2F%2Fcvs.pgfoundry.org%2Fcgi-bin%2Fcvsweb.cgi%2Fpgpool%2Fpgpool-II%2Fpool.h%3Fr1%3D1.36%26r2%3D1.36.2.1)
pool_process_query.c(r1.141.2.4 -> r1.141.2.5)
