Backup Restore Error

Hi there,

I’m trying to backup our staging site with data from our production site. The log after the numerous CREATE INDEX is as follows:

I’m not sure what the digest_unsubscribe_keys_pkey are, but I believe this is the start of the error.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!

Is your “staging” server Discourse software the same or newer version than that of the “production” server Discourse software ?

  • check /admin page of each Discourse instance, what is the Version on both servers ?

Hi @kuyashi, the same error occurs for both our dev and staging sites.

Staging and Production are both at : v1.6.0.beta9
Development: v1.6.0.beta11 +39

Both error logs appear to be the same.

Any ideas here @tgxworld?

Additionally, attempting to do a restore on our staging site with a staging backup file also produces the same error log.

This is on a restore, so the backup schema should have been dropped when the restore started, I think!

And I thought the schema switch was

BEGIN;
DROP SCHEMA IF EXISTS backup;
ALTER SCHEMA public RENAME TO backup;
ALTER SCHEMA restore RENAME TO public;
COMMIT;

Has it changed?

Brief look but we’re only dropping the restore schema first and then moving all the tables between schemas.

@ivanrlio is there a failed restore before you encountered this error?

One way to fix right now is just to drop the backup schema and try restoring again. :warning: Dropping the backup schema means the previous state your site is in before your last restored will be lost.

Hi @riking and @tgxworld for getting back to me on this.

We haven’t done a restore in months and would only ever do it to update the database for threads and users etc. I’m unable to recall if we had a failed restore then.

I will try dropping the backup schema then restoring with the most recent production backup file.

Thanks!

Hi Ivan,

You can drop the backup schema by running

./launcher enter app
psql -U postgres -c "DROP SCHEMA IF EXISTS backup CASCADE;"

Be sure to take another backup before you do so :slight_smile:

This was it! Thanks :grin:

When I run

./launcher enter app
psql -U postgres -c "DROP SCHEMA IF EXISTS backup CASCADE;"

I got

psql: FATAL:  Peer authentication failed for user "postgres"

What should I do next?

Try running su - postgres before the psql command.

@tgxworld
Then I got this:

NOTICE: schema “backup” does not exist, skipping
DROP SCHEMA

BTW I have exactly the same error message to @ivanrlio:

EXCEPTION: ERROR: relation “digest_unsubscribe_keys_pkey” already exists in schema “backup”
CONTEXT: SQL statement “ALTER TABLE public.unsubscribe_keys SET SCHEMA backup;”
PL/pgSQL function inline_code_block line 11 at EXECUTE

Should I follow the solution?

Ah try this command

psql -U postgres <db name> -c "DROP SCHEMA IF EXISTS backup CASCADE;"

Be sure to specify your db name.
