Hi,
I am currently running a stand alone PostgreSQL v8.4.14 on a Linux CentOS server and need to perform an upgrade.
Can I upgrade to the latest PostgreSQL v9.3.5 or do I need to perform an intermediate upgrade?
Current:
psql (PostgreSQL) 8.4.14
java version "1.6.0_37"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0_37-b06)
Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 20.12-b01, mixed mode)
Linux 2.6.18-371.4.1.el5 x86_64
Thanks,
Ashish.

Apply database minor versions from PostgreSQL 8.4.14 to 8.4.22 and then
up-grade database version from PostgreSQL 8.4.22 to PostgreSQL 9.3.5.
Thanks & Regards

How important is uninterrupted uptime to you? If no big deal, then as
mentioned by another poster, upgrde ti 8.4.latest, then after taking a
backup install 9.3.latest and use pg_upgrade from 9.3 to get there.
Other possibilites are to take a backup with 9.3 and then restore with
that. Use slony to replicate from 8.4 to 9.3 so that both are live and
switchover time is minimized.
