Can I also ask y'all a more
general question about this, specifically related to how
Postgres is packaged for RHEL/Centos? I've got both 9.6 and
9.2 installed. In this case though, it seems that the 9.2
version is privileged/selected by default. But psql defaults
to the 9.6 version. Are there other similar things that will
default to either 9.2 or 9.6? And if so, what controls that
behavior, is it easily-changeable, and/or can you go back and
forth?
I've never tried running two
versions at once before. Maybe this is an isolated incident,
but I'm just trying to get my mind around the concept, and
know what kind of pitfalls if any to expect or beware of.
Thanks!
when you run multiple versions, you need to keep the path *and*
the port straight. each server running is on a separate port.
I have one dev box at work that runs pg 9.3, 9.4, 9.5, and 9.6,
all on seperate ports.
