I´m trying to upgrade my server to 10.5.1 and I´m following the steps on url . Everytime I´m getting an error on Step 8

"Choose to Continue Portal Upgrade. .....Specify the user name, password, email, and identity question and answer of the initial administrator account. ...."

or sometimes

Here I´m running a federate/hosted server + Portal and Datastore on Linux (single machine).

I ran portaldiag to check and here the result.

Did you verify that the install account has full control over the db directory within the path in your first screenshot?

I'm getting a similar PostgreSQL error, however, mine is not the result of a migration. I started debugging today with the latest ArcGIS Enterprise 10.5.1 Linux single-machine deployment AMI found here. It worked fine for a couple hours as I rebuilt my server, loaded data, rebooted a couple times, and then the error appeared again:

After this error occurred, PostgreSQL will not start again automatically on port 5432 even if I reboot the server. This only impacts my local PostgreSQL datastore, but Portal and ArcGIS Server keep running fine (since they appear to be running PostgreSQL on different ports: 9876 and 7654).

$ ps axf | grep 'postgres -D'
1728 ? S 0:00 /arcgis/datastore/framework/runtime/pgsql/bin/postgres -D /gisdata/arcgisdatastore/pgdata -p 9876
3137 ? S 0:00 /arcgis/portal/framework/runtime/pgsql/bin/postgres -D /gisdata/arcgisportal/db -p 7654

I have both a Dev and Test ArcGIS Enterprise instance running in Amazon AWS. Both instances had been running fine for several months, but my PostgreSQL database stopped working on both servers at the same time last week. I did not do any upgrades. I just rebooted the EC2 instances, and they both stopped working. I did noticed from looking back at an old snapshot that PostgreSQL had been upgraded somehow from 9.5.7 to 9.5.10. When I launched the new AMI today, it was already at 9.5.10 when I started, so I have no idea what changed or auto-upgraded in the last few hours. After doing some research, if I temporarily start the database using the following command, everything 'seems' to function correctly again (NOT an actual fix!):

$ sudo su postgres -c '/usr/lib/postgresql/9.5/bin/pg_ctl start -D /gisdata/data/pgdata/main'

Does anyone know what could be happening here or how to auto-launch this database again when the server boots? I know these AMIs are supposed to be a black box that you don't touch, but I don't know what else to try. I'm going to have to move the database to RDS for development (additional cost) or switch to a Windows server (additional cost).

Resolution: I switched to Amazon RDS for my primary PostgreSQL data store. It's worth the extra cost (more stable, automatic backups, dashboards, easy access to logs, etc..).

Did you ever figure out why it stopped working? I'm seeing a similar issue trying to install Portal on a Windows machine. At some point last month it went from working to not working, and I didn't make any changes.

No, I never figured out why PostgreSQL Stopped auto-launching on the Linux AMI.

Hi Amal

We couldn´t upgrade to 10.5.1.

When 10.6 was available We did a new install and a lot of services were republished manually.

Sorry 😞
