How/where can I see the requirements (versions in specific) to connect openproject with Postgres server ? 🤔

Hi Jonathan,

the docs contain a section regarding all system requirements. Maybe these include the information you are looking for?

https://www.openproject.org/docs/installation-and-operations/system-requirements/#system-requirements

my bad, I saw it but I was looking more into it due to an error am getting while trying to backup.

I've a Postgres 15 server, since I started using Openproject, but I'm trying to upgrade my docker image to use the Openproject 13.1/13

Backup failed: pg_dump: error: server version: 15.4; pg_dump version: 13.11 (Debian 13.11-1.pgdg110+1) pg_dump: error: aborting because of server version mismatch

not sure what can i do to back up my data, any suggestions? 🤔

Hi Jonathan,

the pg_dump version and the version of the postgresql server are different.
To create a backup you need to use the same pg_dump version as your server.
I guess you tried to use the pg_dump of the OpenProject container this will not work in your case instead you can use the pg_dump of you database server.

thanks for the answer, i solved by creating a docker container with the version i need to make the dump then with the new version import the dump, seems that it worked. thanks!
