Hi!
I reconfigured my system and pulled in the postgres 9.6.2 update. Now
postgres does not start, /var/log/messages has
May 12 13:02:52 localhost postgres[451]: [1-1] FATAL: database files are
incompatible with server
May 12 13:02:52 localhost postgres[451]: [1-2] DETAIL: The data directory
was initialized by PostgreSQL version 9.5, which is not compatible with this
version 9.6.2.
I have reverted the postgres update and everything is "fine" again.s
How do we want to handle this? I imagine that postgres has some way to
update its database...and I probably can figure out how to do that. But
do our users need to know this? And more importantly, if I upgrade,
will I be able to revert to a previous generation of my system?
Greetings,
janneke
