Обсуждение: pg_upgrade and ubuntu
I ran into an issue migrating from 9.1 to 9.3 on ubuntu using pg_upgrade the default ubuntu package, and the one from postgresql.org, both store `postgresql.conf` in etc as `/etc/postgresql/VERSION/main/postgresql.conf` however, the pg_upgrade script expects it in the `datadir`. the simple solution seems to be just symlinking the /etc files into the data dirs. it took me a while to realize this was the error. it might make sense to upgrade the docs with a note about what should be in the data dir to enable an upgrade.

I believe there is: http://www.postgresql.org/docs/9.3/interactive/pgupgrade.html Notes "If you are upgrading a pre-PostgreSQL 9.2 cluster that uses a configuration-file-only directory, you must pass the real data directory location to pg_upgrade, and pass the configuration directory location to the server, e.g. -d /real-data-directory -o '-D /configuration-directory'." > > > > -- Adrian Klaver adrian.klaver@aklaver.com

Note it appears there is a pg_upgradecluster program, but it doesn't appear to a wrapper for the official program...

As far as I recall, pg_upgradecluster goes through a pg_dump / pg_restore cycle. It predates pg_upgrade itself. -- Álvaro Herrera http://www.2ndQuadrant.com/ PostgreSQL Development, 24x7 Support, Training & Services

On Debian/Ubuntu, use pg_upgradecluster --method upgrade. See the man page for details.
