Hello all, I get the following output from pg_upgrade when trying to upgrade a test cluster on Windows 7 x64: c:\Daten>path PATH=c:\windows;c:\windows\system32;c:\Program Files\PostgreSQL\9.2\bin c:\Daten>pg_upgrade --old-bindir="c:\Program Files\PostgreSQL\9.1\bin" --new-bindir="c:\Program Files\PostgreSQL\9.2\bin" --old-datadir="c:\Daten\db\pgsql" --new-datadir=c:\Daten\db\pgsql-9.2\data --old-port=5432 --new-port=5433 --user=postgres --verbose --check [...] Checking for contrib/isn with bigint-passing mismatch ok ""c:\Program Files\PostgreSQL\9.1\bin/pg_ctl" -w -D "c:\Daten\db\pgsql" -o "" stop >> "pg_upgrade_utility.log" 2>&1" pg_ctl: no operation specified Try "pg_ctl --help" for more information. *failure* There were problems executing """c:\Program Files\PostgreSQL\9.1\bin/pg_ctl" -w -D "c:\Daten\db\pgsql" -o "" stop

Consult the last few lines of "pg_upgrade_utility.log" for the probable cause of the failure. Failure, exiting ""c:\Program Files\PostgreSQL\9.1\bin/pg_ctl" -w -D "c:\Daten\db\pgsql" -o "" -m fast stop >> "pg_upgrade_utility.log" 2>&1" pg_ctl: no operation specified Try "pg_ctl --help" for more information. *failure* There were problems executing """c:\Program Files\PostgreSQL\9.1\bin/pg_ctl" -w -D "c:\Daten\db\pgsql" -o "" -m fast stop >> "pg_upgrade_utility.log" 2>&1"" Consult the last few lines of "pg_upgrade_utility.log" for the probable cause of the failure. If needed, I can provide the full output of pg_upgrade, but it does not indicate any other problems. Man's best friend, procmon, shows the following command lines for the last three invocations of pg_ctl: "c:\Program Files\PostgreSQL\9.1\bin/pg_ctl" -w -l "pg_upgrade_server.log" -D "c:\Daten\db\pgsql" -o "-p 5432 -b " start "c:\Program Files\PostgreSQL\9.1\bin/pg_ctl" -w -D "c:\Daten\db\pgsql" -o " stop >> "pg_upgrade_utility.log" 2>&1" "c:\Program Files\PostgreSQL\9.1\bin/pg_ctl" -w -D "c:\Daten\db\pgsql" -o " -m fast stop >> "pg_upgrade_utility.log" 2>&1" As you can see, the two failing commands (the last two) are missing the second quote for the empty -o option. This pulled the remainder of the command line, including the operation and the output redirection, into the -o option's value. The output from pg_upgrade itself, as well as the referenced log file (see below) have such an unintelligible mess of quotation marks that I cannot tell whether it's correct there. pg_upgrade_utility.log: command: ""c:\Program Files\PostgreSQL\9.1\bin/pg_ctl" -w -D "c:\Daten\db\pgsql" -o "" stop >> "pg_upgrade_utility.log" 2>&1" command: ""c:\Program Files\PostgreSQL\9.1\bin/pg_ctl" -w -D "c:\Daten\db\pgsql" -o "" -m fast stop >> "pg_upgrade_utility.log" 2>&1" Is there anything I can do to avoid this? Should I report it as a bug? -- Christian -- Sent via pgsql-admin mailing list (pgsql-admin@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-admin
