When attempting to upgrade a Postgres 13.2 database to 14, I receive the error "out of shared memory" when running the upgrade.
I have adjusted
max_locks_per_transaction
to different and really high values, and max_connections
and other memory settings. I have checked many configuration settings but have not found a reason why it cannot do the pg_dump/pg_upgrade with those settings.
OS is
Amazon Linux release 2 (Karoo). ID_LIKE="centos rhel fedora"
The error is as follows
command: "/usr/pgsql-14/bin/pg_dump" --host /usr/pgsql-14/bin --port 50432 --username postgres --schema-only --quote-all-identifiers --binary-upgrade --format=custom --file="pg_upgrade_dump_18458.custom" 'dbname=aprivatedb' >> "pg_upgrade_dump_18458.log" 2>&1
pg_dump: error: query failed: ERROR: out of shared memory
HINT: You might need to increase max_locks_per_transaction.
pg_dump: error: query was: LOCK TABLE "privatedata"."private_activities" IN ACCESS SHARE mode
Where did you make these changes? Based on the error messages, it is the 13 cluster, not the 14 cluster, that needs max_locks_per_transaction
raised.
pg_dump is run against the old cluster (using the new binary), not the new one.
