Thank you for taking the time to help me!
You upgraded to pg13 fine? , but while on pg13 you have issues with logical replication ?
Yes, the upgrade went fine. So here are some details:
I already had londiste running on postgres 9.3, but londiste wouldn't run on Debian 10
So i first made the new server Debian 9 with postgres 9.6 and i started replicating with londiste from 9.3 to 9.6
When all was ready, i stopped the replication to the 9.6 server and deleted all londiste & pgq content with drop schema cascade.
Then I upgraded the server to Debian 10. Then i user pg_upgrade to upgrade from postgres 9.6 to 13. (PostGIS versions were kept compatible).
Then I added logical replication and a third server as a subscriber.
I was going to write that replication is working fine (since the table contains a lot of data and there are no conflicts in the log), but it turns out that it isn't.
The subscriber is behind and It looks like there hasn't been any incoming data after the initial data synchronization.
So at least now i know that the WAL is being retained with a reason. The connection is working properly (via psql anyway)
I will also look into how to diagnose this from the system tables, e.g. substracting LSN's to get some quantitative measure for the lag.
There is a path in the postgresql source user subscription folder iirc which covers various logical replication scenarios.That may help you just in case.
OK, so comments in the source code you mean?
