I am resposting this to the list and not only to Tomas. Tomas, I can’t promise just yet to delve into this because given the patch fixes the issue it’s obviously much lower priority for our team. Are you hoping for me to confirm the exact scenario in which the 9.6.10 patch fixes the bug? Actually, there were more things changed than that so I'm not positive it was the last patch: BEFORE: Provider - 9.6.8-1.pgdg16.04+1, pglogical 2.1.1-1.xenial+1 Subscriber - 9.6.9-2.pgdg16.04+1, 2.1.1-1.xenial+1 AFTER: Provider - 9.6.10-1.pgdg16.04+1, pglogical 2.2.0-3.xenial+1 Subscriber - 9.6.10-1.pgdg16.04+1, pglogical 2.2.0-3.xenial+1 > I quickly went through the commits in 9.6 branch between 9.6.9 and > 9.6.10, looking for stuff that might be related, and these three commits > seem possibly related (usually because of invalidations, vacuum, ...): > > 6a46aba1cd6dd7c5af5d52111a8157808cbc5e10 > Fix bugs in vacuum of shared rels, by keeping their relcache entries > current. > > da10d6a8a94eec016fa072d007bced9159a28d39 > Fix "base" snapshot handling in logical decoding > > 0a60a291c9a5b8ecdf44cbbfecc4504e3c21ef49 > Add table relcache invalidation to index builds. > > But it's hard to say if/which of those commits did the trick, without > more information. > Let me know if that info gives you any more insight - actually 2 point version jumps for provider, 1 for subscriber.
