Hi Regina,
We are upgrading from PG 13 3.1.2 to PG 15 3.3.5
I forget if pg_upgrade checks the old .so to see if it can still load it or

pg_upgrade is checking in the PG13 lib whether the .so file exists or not.
If it does check, I’d try upgrading to a newer PostGIS on your older

We might have to go with this approach because it checks the .so file in
old version
Error:
pg_dump: error: query failed: ERROR: could not access file
"$libdir/postgis-3": No such file or directory
pg_dump: detail: Query was: EXECUTE dumpFunc('23873')
Missing .so files:
-0-root@host:/usr/pgsql-13/lib # ls -l /usr/pgsql-13/lib/postgis*
ls: cannot access '/usr/pgsql-13/lib/postgis*': No such file or directory
-2-root@host:/usr/pgsql-13/lib # ls -l /usr/pgsql-15/lib/postgis*
/usr/pgsql-15/lib/postgis-3.so
/usr/pgsql-15/lib/postgis_raster-3.so
/usr/pgsql-15/lib/postgis_sfcgal-3.so
/usr/pgsql-15/lib/postgis_topology-3.so
Thanks,
Nikhil
