I have a data directory that was created by Postgres 12 (I thought
beta 3 but now am not sure anymore) running in Docker.
I have installed Postgres 12b3 as a Systemd service and am trying
to set the cluster to the same PGDATA. I have set the owner of the
directory to postgres:postrgres, and the permissions to 0700, but
I'm getting the following error:
2019-08-22 23:40:48.759 UTC [23044] FATAL: database files are
incompatible with server
2019-08-22 23:40:48.759 UTC [23044] DETAIL: The database cluster
was initialized with CATALOG_VERSION_NO 201906161, but the server
was compiled with CATALOG_VERSION_NO 201907221.
So the cluster is from an older version then the server.
Aren't Pg files supposed to be compatible within minor versions?
Betas are a moving target so that does not hold:
https://www.postgresql.org/developer/beta/
"Features are subject to changes that are backwards incompatible at
any time during the development of the betas, and could possibly be
removed altogether."
Features as in the on-disk structure?
Short version:
T
he error was about the catversion which tracks the system catalog state.
Adding/subtracting features can change that state and make clusters
incompatible.
Long version:
