I have a serious problem: on Wednesday, April 2 OpenSUSE 12.1 is updated, and the package was to update the PostGIS-a version 1.5.3 to 2.0.0. After this operation, Postgres does not display records. In pgAdmin count the records, but seeing them in a table view, and by SELECT is a problem. I can not do dump: pg_dump-h 127.0.0.1-p 5432-U postgres-Fc-b-v-f "/ home / admin / olddb.backup" Tomice

I get the message: pg_dump: SQL command failed pg_dump: Communication error with server :: ERROR: can not access the file "$ libdir/postgis-1.5 ': No such file or directory pg_dump: Your command: COPY public.armatura (gid, type, sub_typ, description, wys_g, wys_d, operator, the_geom) TO stdout; pg_dump: *** stopped because of an error

In view of the tables in PgAdminie my tables, I have a good number of records, but when you call the data is still the same.

I noticed that almost all functions have the following address: "$ libdir/postgis-1.5" that during the upgrade-u has been replaced by / PostGIS-2.0. I could perhaps remove the column geometry, but at the base of my ...

I attach screenshots of pgAdmin. Command did not help, sql for good-sounded names: postgis_upgrade_2.0.sql etc. .. Suddenly all the repositories of RPMs flown for PostGIS 1.5.3, and I can not go back to the old version ... At stake is 1 working day to 15 people. If anyone has any idea - I'll be bound.

I have no idea to solve this problem.

Revert your software to 1.5, then follow the HARD UPGRADE instructions in the manual, doing the dump step, then the software upgrade, then the restore steps. http://postgis.net/docs/manual-1.5/ch02.html#hard_upgrade

I am a maintainer at Application:Geo. I will restore postgis 1.5.3 binaries in the next few hours.

If you are in a hurry check http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/tzotsos:/postgis/openSUSE_12.1/ where the old binary is posted now.

Thanks for the report, Angelos
