I am trying to upgrade 9.5.5 to 12.3 using pg_uprade, got the following error
Old and new pg_controldata maximum relation segment sizes are invalid or do not match
9.5.5
Blocks per segment of large relation: 8388608
12.3
Blocks per segment of large relation: 131072
8388608 blocks is equivalent to 64 GB.
I recompiled the 12.3 version using the following options
./configure –prefix=/opt/pgsql/PostgreSQL-12 –with-segsize=64
pg_controldata output 9.5.5
pg_control version number: 942

And ran pg_upgrade again, and get the same error as above.
What am I missing here?

You seem to have posted the
pg_controldata
output for PostgreSQL 9.5 twice.Anyway, you'll have to configure PostgreSQL v12 with a non-standard table segment size:
Also, during
initdb
, you will have to specify the non-standard WAL segment size:Then
pg_upgrade
should succeed (if locale etc. match).
