Next-Gen PostgreSQL Convenience Image Beta

Ecosystem CircleCI Images
, , , ,
1

The next-gen PostgreSQL beta image is now available. The following initial tags are available:

  • cimg/postgres:9.6.22 (cimg/postgres:9.6)
  • cimg/postgres:10.17
  • cimg/postgres:11.12
  • cimg/postgres:12.7
  • cimg/postgres:13.3

We’re looking feedback. If you have any, please post it here. Here’s some of what we’re looking for:

  • are you coming from the legacy image (circleci/postgres)? If so, how does this work for you? Faster? Slower? Missing something?
  • do you need a PostgreSQL version the beta doesn’t have yet? Let us know.

As this is a beta, these images aren’t considered stable yet. They can change at any time through the beta as we begin to optimize and tweak the images.

Feedback, questions, etc, please post them here. This forum thread will be updated when there’s significant changes to the image.

seeing this crop up:

ActiveRecord::StatementInvalid: PG::UndefinedFile: ERROR: could not open extension control file "/usr/lib/postgresql/%%MAJOR_VERSION%%/share/extension/citext.control": No such file or directory

We’re seeing the same thing as @imajes, extensions seem to not be working.

In our case we can’t use the uuid extension.

2021-06-08 11:30:26.365 UTC [148] ERROR:  could not open extension control file "/usr/lib/postgresql/%%MAJOR_VERSION%%/share/extension/uuid-ossp.control": No such file or directory

2021-06-08 11:30:26.455 UTC [148] ERROR:  function uuid_generate_v4() does not exist

Thanks for the feedback. We’ll be taking a look.
