PostgreSQL

Submitted by NewingtonIST on Wed, 03/25/2009 - 12:59pm

Has anyone attempted to upgrade the PostreSQL jumpbox from 8.3.5 to the new 8.3.7 version? If so, can you point me in the right direction to upgrade the database. The data structure on the jumpbox appears to be different then what I found on PostgreSQL website.

Thanks,

Paul

Actually, for the time being the PostgreSQL version on the PostgreSQLd JumpBox (and any other JumpBox that uses postgres) will be 8.3.5.

It may be possible to shutdown and or remove the 8.3.5 version and build/install your own newer version but that version would not be integrated into the JumpBox like the officially distributed version is. So you can probably do it, but it will be neither convenient nor supported. If that doesn't bother you, go for it!

We aren't likely to upgrade to this newer version in the immediate future.

Clive's suggestion of apt-get install/upgrading will not work since there are no newer Postgres versions available for Ubuntu 8.04, otherwise the JumpBox would be using these packages and we wouldn't be in this situation.
