Hi Ron,
I first thought they were going to be installed in their own
directories, but I'm starting to think that I'm missing something
during instalation process or maybe I'm missing something at
deeper level (probably lack of knowledge about linux and
postgres). The thing is after installing v9.6, having both
versions running, I can't connect to the older one and I'm having
the message: "no such file or directory. Is the server running
locally and accepting connections on Unix domain socket
"/var/run/postgresql/.s.PGSQL.5432"?".
I've checked ports and everything seems to be fine:

I've also tried to change v8.4 pg_hba.conf setting local
connections to trusted but this also doesn't work.

Hi
again,
I previously asked in another list about what version would be
the best to make a pg_upgrade from v8.4. I've finally chosen 9.6
to make version jump less drastic, though I've been testing
pg_upgrade whole process with both 9.6 and 10. But after
reinstalling my test machine several times now I have 9.6 so
that's what I'll be talking about.
The problem I have is that when I install PG9.6 in a machine
with CentOS and PG8.4 (version that comes with OS) then v8.4
becomes unavailable. Finally I've found that psql binary changes
after v9.6 installation. But checking files that are installed
with this version, I can't see what package causes the problem.
And as I'm not used to *nix systems, I'm not sure how can I
solve this. The process I've done:
- Installed a new machine with CentOS installation CD, which
installs CentOS and PG8.4
- Made InitDB, started service (with "service postgresql start"
instruction).
- Without changing pg_hba.conf (nor postgresql.conf) file, I've
connected with psql, created some roles and some empty
databases. Disconnected from database ("\q") and restored some
backups with psql command.
- After all this, I can connect to v8.4 with root user and
postgres user. Finally I've stopped postgresql (service stop).
- Tried to start postgres again but using pg_ctl. Tested
connection with psql again (ok) and stopped.
- v8.4 is installed in /usr/bin and /var/lib/pgsql folders, that
seemed quite generic for me, so I made a copy of both (with "cp
-pr" command):
/usr/bin ==> /usr/bin_8.4
/var/lib/pgsl ==> /var/lib/pgsl_8.4
- I've tested copy: started with pg_ctl (the one that was copied
to /usr/bin_8.4) pointing to copied data folder
(/var/lib/pgsl_8.4/data). Started ok. Tried to connect with psql
(ok) and stopped again.
- At this point, I've followed https://www.postgresql.org/download/linux/rdhat/
instructions to install v9.6: download repo, install client and
install server.
- Made InitDB in v9.6 and changed listening port in
postgresql.conf (v9.6 config file)
- After this installation, if I make "service postgresql start"
I can see "something" running (I can list processes with ps -ef)
but when trying to connect with psql it won't connect exiting
with a message like (sorry, it's my translation as original
message is not in english):
psql: could not connect to server: file or directory does not
exist.
Is server locally running and listening at Unix domain
socket «/var/run/postgresql/.s.PGSQL.5432»?
Also "/usr/bin/psql" file is different than it's copy at bin_8.4
(some Kbytes bigger than the original file).
Older PG version is now unavailable, and I can't run pg_upgrade
to migrate to a newer version. I've managed to make the whole
process in Ubuntu 18, but Production server is CentOS 6.8. Any
clue about why is this happening and how can I deal with this
situation? During CentOS installation I can't (or haven't seen)
change installation directory for Postgres. I now about
data_directory in postgresql.conf, but not sure how to manage
binaries dir.
I have recorded all the commands I've run, just in case anyone
need more detailed info.
Thanks in advance,
Ekaterina
