Hi

Not sure what I am doing wrong.

I am not getting all the required rpms for the Postgres version 8.4.2.

=============
http://rpm.pbone.net/

Your query postgresql-devel-8.4.2 did not match any entry in database.
Your query postgresql-server-8.4.2 did not match any entry in database.

http://www.rpmfind.net/

Could not connect to the database: Too many connections
==============

What should I be doing?

Thanks

I hope you can find your rpm's there, i'm a debian-user...

Using http://yum.pgsqlrpms.org/8.4/ maybe?

It's been a long time since I found either rpbone.net or rpmfind.net to
be very useful, might as well use Google instead to find stuff--faster
and more accurate.

They also used to be at ftp.postgresql.org:/pub/binary.
There are only rpms up to 8.4.1

Re: Not finding RPMs for 8.4.2!

Easy mistake to make....

The repo RPM version is 8.4-1 <-- note the hyphen. This is the repo for
all 8.4 versions, including 8.4.2.

Install the proper repo RPM for your platform and then you can just yum
install (or upgrade) PostgreSQL 8.4.2.

To browse the files in the 8.4 repo, try:

http://yum.pgsqlrpms.org/8.4/

Cheers!

Which os/distro are you looking for? I hope it is not Fedora 11 -
x86_64.

Thanks. Just what I was looking for.

What;s the YUM command to upgrade PG? Do I need to stop PG server? Can
I be sure that my config and other settings will not be overwritten?

Thanks!

If you are upgrading from 8.X.Y to 8.X.Z, you don't need to backup
anything. If you are performing a major upgrade, you need to dump and
restore.
