Re: BUG #16003: pg_basebackup failed with error : directory "xxxxxxx" exists but is not empty

Hi Magnus,

 

Thanks for the reply.

 

We have tablespace directories inside other tablespaces because we have a technical schema (call »tech) into each database.

So we can’t put thoses tablespaces (for tech) anywhere else (they have the same name).

Well… it’s our choice. Probably it’s not a good choice but it’s done and it will be very difficult to change this actually. 

 

But do you think it’s impossible for dev team to change pg_basebackup so that it works in this case ? 

(by the way, i’m not sure it’s the right way to answer like this (reply this mail) for the comunication on this list. I don’t know how i can do  otherwise…)
