| After automatically updating Postgres to 10.0 via Homebrew, the pg_ctl start command didn't work. | |
| The error was "The data directory was initialized by PostgreSQL version 9.6, which is not compatible with this version 10.0." | |
| Database files have to be updated before starting the server, here are the steps that had to be followed: | |
| # need to have both 9.6.x and latest 10.0 installed, and keep 10.0 as default | |
| brew unlink postgresql | |
| brew install postgresql@9.6 | |
| brew unlink postgresql@9.6 | |
| brew link postgresql |
