Hi,
I'm in the process of upgrading from 96 -> 11 (on RHEL 7.3) . Both the
versions have PostGIS 2.5.1 installed and working.
pg_upgrade fails with:
pg_restore: [archiver (db)] Error from TOC entry 440; 1259 537086 TABLE
tablename databasename
pg_restore: [archiver (db)] could not execute query: ERROR: relation
"public.spatial_ref_sys" does not exist
LINE 39: "location_pt" "public"."geography"(Point,4283),
You used the 11 version of pg_upgrade, correct?
On looking further at the sequence of events I can see that:
1. The PostGIS extension is created (but somehow the related tables
such as spatial_ref_sys do not get created)
2. The tablename table gets created causing the above error
3. At some point later in the upgrade spatial_ref_sys is to be created
Questions:
1) How was PostGIS installed on the 9.6.? and 11.? versions?
Where extensions used or was the manual method used?
2) Did you end up with a working install in 11.?
Is there any way round this type of issue (I guess forcing
spatial_ref_sys to be created either with the extension as normal or
just before any tables which rely on it).
Cheers,
James Sewell,
