archive command get an error

[tengilim]

Hi;

When I set up backup environment with pg_probackup  the archive command get an error. 

Error:

DETAIL: The failed archive command was: /usr/bin/pg_probackup-10 archive-push -B /dbbackupsisi/PGBackups/pg_probackup --instance YYYY --wal-file path=pg_wal/00000005000000B9000000F9 --wal-file-name=00000005000000B9000000F9 --remote-host=XXXX
ERROR: -B, --backup-path must be a path to directory

archive command:

archive_command = '/usr/bin/pg_probackup-10 archive-push -B /dbbackupsisi/PGBackups/pg_probackup/ --instance YYYY --wal-file-path=%p --wal-file-name=%f --remote-host=XXXX'

I have no idea what the problem is...

Thank you..

backups of 4 different servers are taken over this backup server. So I have 4 instance... This is the fifth server and fifth instance. There was no problem with other servers but I had such a problem with this server.

That is strange, how directory can be of size 0?

[gsmolk]

I can provide you with package of custom binary, that will report additional information to further investigate this problem

[tengilim]

Other backups and archive wal files are taken to the same place, but there is no problem with them.

What is the pg_probackup version you are using?

[tengilim]

on backup_server
pg_probackup-10 2.2.7 (PostgreSQL 10.10)

on postgres server
pg_probackup-10 2.3.1 (PostgreSQL 10.12)

Hello @tengilim !
Is the same version of probackup installed on all postgresql server you’ve mentioned above?

[gsmolk]

I`ve managed to reproduce your issue.
pg_probackup requires that binaries on local and remote systems to be of the same version.
Version mismatch should be detected and error issued:

ERROR: Agent error: ERROR: Agent version 2.3.2 doesn't match master pg_probackup version 2.2.7

BUT it appears that in case of archive-push version matching works incorrectly. It is a bug.
You should either update your backup server binary to 2.3.1 or downgrade binary on postgres server to 2.2.7

[tengilim]

I think minor versions are different. I installed the pg_probackup the latest postgresql server 2 days ago. this server's pg_probackup version is 2.3.1 . The other postgresql server's and backup server's pg_probackup version is 2.2.7 . So just minor version is different

"downgrade binary on postgres server to 2.2.7" how can I do this?

What OS you are using?

[tengilim]

centOS7

[gsmolk]

1. You must edit repo file /etc/yum.repos.d/pg_probackup.repo and change latest to 2.2.7:
   baseurl=https://repo.postgrespro.ru/pg_probackup/rpm/2.2.7/centos-$releasever-$basearch
2. Clean cache: yum clean all
3. Reinstall package: yum remove pg_probackup-10 && yum install pg_probackup-10
