Hello all,
I've got a few issues after upgrading to 9.10 from 9.04.
First off, when I first upgraded from 8.10 -> 9.04 the Perl 5.10 package is completely borked, which caused me to have to MANUALLY downgrade my Perl package back to 5.8.8 because, well, that version actually works.
Second, after upgrading from 9.04 -> 9.10 I've got several things that just stopped functioning. Primarily is my Postgresql database. I had v8.3 previously and it upgraded itself to 8.4. However after doing so, 8.4 won't work at all. I've configured it just as I configured my old 8.3 database. I even went so far as copying my configs to ensure they were all correct. Still no joy. It simply would not allow anyone to connect to the database server at all. Keeps refusing on the basis of NOT AUTHORIZED... go figure.
So I fired up Synaptic to see what was actually installed. Turns out 8.3 was still on the system and 8.4 as well. I went to the main directory to see the differences between 8.3 and 8.4 and I had individual directories for each version. I copied my configurations to 8.4 again and restarted the server but it still would not allow me to log into the database server.
I searched all over to see if there was something irregular in the new version of Postgres8.4 but couldn't find anything listed on the net.
So I fired up Synaptic again and un-installed postgresql 8.3 & 8.4 then reinstalled 8.4 only.
This time it didn't even create any directories at all except for the /etc/postgresql-common which is pretty much useless.
Once again I used Synaptic to un-install 8.4 and re-install 8.3 then upgraded to 8.4 again and still nothing. No directories created, no startup file in /etc/init.d ... nothing.
So I'm at a complete loss. What am I missing here? Is the 8.4 package borked like the Perl 5.10 package? Has anybody else had major issues upgrading from Ubuntu9.04->9.10?
Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks
