[xwiki-users] PostgreSQL version downgraded for 8.0?
I noticed that the supported version of PostgreSQL for XWiki 8.0 is 9.4.5. But for 7.4.2 it is 9.5. Is there some significance to this, eg. there is some function in 8.0 that was found not to work with PostgreSQL 9.5? Or is this simply an artefact of the testing process? Is there a need to downgrade PostgreSQL to 9.4.5 if I upgrade XWiki to 8.0? The database support strategy page could be interpreted to indicate that all PostgreSQL 9.x releases are supported. But I find it hard to believe that you would be that generous (9.0 has reached its end of life milestone and 9.1 is almost there). -- View this message in context: http://xwiki.475771.n2.nabble.com/PostgreSQL-version-downgraded-for-8-0-tp75...

Where did you found "the supported version of PostgreSQL" ? The closest that might be seen like this (but is really not) is the version of PGSQL used for tests declared in the parent pom.xml and this one did not changed a bit between http://maven.xwiki.org/releases/org/xwiki/enterprise/xwiki-enterprise/7.4.2/... and http://maven.xwiki.org/releases/org/xwiki/platform/xwiki-platform-distributi....

Regarding XWiki 8.0 and pgsql 9.4.5, it’s here: http://www.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/ReleaseNotes/ReleaseNotesXWiki80#HTested... Thanks -Vincent

Hi Mark,

No
Or is this simply an artefact of the testing process?
The testers just chose to use that version of pgsql when testing.
Is there a need to downgrade PostgreSQL to 9.4.5 if I upgrade XWiki to 8.0?
No

That’s correct, provided you can find a jdbc 4 driver for it.
But I find it hard to believe that you would be that generous (9.0 has reached its end of life milestone and 9.1 is almost there).
It should work, if not please report an issue and we’ll decide what to do: drop support, fix it, etc. Thanks -Vincent

I know this page but this page but there is nothing in there to differentiate between 7.4.2 and 8.0 which is why I'm asking Mark.

Hello, I think Mark was reading the Summary pages for 7.4.2 and 8.0 which had some specific versions listed inside them. I've modified both http://www.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/TestReports/ManualTestReportSummaryXWiki... and http://www.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/TestReports/ManualTestReportSummaryXWiki... to make it more clear. When a certain DB version number is listed and has a test result on its right, this means that we have tested using that DB version, not that it's the only DB version supported. Hope this helps, Manuel On Tue, Mar 29, 2016 at 9:38 AM, Thomas Mortagne <[email protected]> wrote:

Thanks for the all the clarifications. My previous experience is with an organization that was much more strict about third party support. So I tend to attach more significance to these kinds of details than is perhaps necessary.
