cannot find pg_ctl utility explorer for postgresql

Post by maoty@actwill.com.cn »

[For Veeam Backup & Replication 12.1 or later] If the pg_ctl utility is located in a custom directory on the target server (and staging server for export operations), Veeam Explorer for PostgreSQL may not find the utility. In this case, specify the utility path in the Veeam Explorers Recovery Service configuration file and restart the service. You can find the configuration file on the mount server at the following path: %ProgramData%\Veeam\Backup\ExplorerStandByService\Config.xml.

Hello,

Here is an example:

Code: Select all

<Veeam>
   <PostgreSqlExplorer>
       <PostgreSQL PostgreSqlBinariesDirectory="<path>" />
   </PostgreSqlExplorer>
</Veeam>
where <path> is the path to the directory that contains the pg_ctl utility.

Could you please clarify whether the pg_utility does not exist in your environment or you installed it separately in a non-default location?

Thanks!
