My guess is that your postgresql 9.3 instance is not using the configuration generated by spacewalk-setup-postgresql. In particular, I suspect this problem would be fixed by setting "bytea_output = 'escape'" in postgresql.conf. Try appending the following to postgresql.conf and restarting the db:

### spacewalk-setup-postgresql modified values
checkpoint_completion_target = 0.7
checkpoint_segments = 8
effective_cache_size = 1152MB
log_line_prefix = '%m '
maintenance_work_mem = 96MB
max_connections = 600
shared_buffers = 384MB
wal_buffers = 4MB
work_mem = 2560kB
bytea_output = 'escape'

For the most part, things look good and all functionality seems to be
happy after my postgres upgrade EXCEPT this one interesting issue:

The running of a "remote command" FUNCTIONS correctly, however, the output

arbitrary script scheduled by XXXX"

no longer shows the command / script that was run, but rather displays a
hex string like:
x23212f62696e2f73680a73657276696365206175746f66732072657374617274


Likewise, the "output" (whether raw or filtered) displays as hex, rather
than as something useful / readable.



Sure seems that the data in the postgres db is now being stored in a new
format or with a new data type.

Anyone seen anything like this or have ideas about why I'm seeing this?

Best wishes,
