Hi all,
it's my first trial with pg_upgrade so I'm surely missing something.... I'm trying to launch pg_upgrade passing my super user name but pg_dumpall fails with a permission denied error.... I don't see the username in the pgdumpall call....could it be this the problem ? Thank you (I hope this is the right list to post this) Marco The output : ------------------------------ -bash-3.2$ /usr/local/pgsql/bin/pg_upgrade -d /dbms/pgdata-8.4 -D /dbms/pgdata -b /usr/local/pgsql-8.4/bin -B /usr/local/pgsql/bin -l /tmp/pg_upgrade.log -v --user=mysuperuser Running in verbose mode Performing Consistency Checks ----------------------------- Checking old data directory (/dbms/pgdata-8.4) ok Checking new data directory (/dbms/pgdata) ok "/usr/local/pgsql-8.4/bin/pg_ctl" -l "/tmp/pg_upgrade.log" -D "/dbms/pgdata-8.4" -o "-p 5432 -c autovacuum=off -c autovacuum_freeze_max_age=2000000000" start >> "/tmp/pg_upgrade.log" 2>&1 Checking for /contrib/isn with bigint-passing mismatch ok Checking for large objects ok Creating catalog dump "/usr/local/pgsql/bin/pg_dumpall" --port 5432 --schema-only --binary-upgrade > "/home/postgres/pg_upgrade_output/pg_upgrade_dump_all.sql" pg_dumpall: query failed: ERROR: permission denied for relation pg_authid pg_dumpall: query was: SELECT rolname, rolsuper, rolinherit, rolcreaterole, rolcreatedb, rolcatupdate, rolcanlogin, rolconnlimit, rolpassword, rolvaliduntil, pg_catalog.shobj_description(oid, 'pg_authid') as rolcomment FROM pg_authid ORDER BY 1
