Adrian, that is correct. More precisely, the steps taken were the
following which I now see where I may have potentially introduced the error:
upgrade from prostgres 9.4.4 to 9.5alpha1
pg_dumpall > file.sql
pg_ctl stop
upgrade postgres 9.5alpha1
rm -r /pgdir/*
initdb -D /pgdir/
pg_ctl start -D /pgdir/
psql template1 -f file.sql
upgrade from postgres 9.5alpha1 to 9.5alpha2
upgrade postgres 9.5alpha1
pg_ctl stop
pg_ctl start -D /pgdir/
Now I see that not stopping the database prior to the upgrade may have
introduced the problem eventhough I don't understand the internals. I
did do another pg_ctl stop/start after upgrade just to see if that would
fix but it didn't.
I just did the following steps, and now no error:
pg_dumpall > file.sql
pg_ctl stop
rm -r /pgdir/*
initdb -D /pgdir/
pg_ctl start -D /pgdir/
psql template1 -f file.sql
logged into db and recreated the function
psql db
create function ds_stats...
Thanks,
