[Bucardo-general] master slave not syncing after db upgrade.

[jtkells]

Hi,

I'm having a bit of trouble here getting a master to slave replication
environment working after a database schema upgrade.  I am using
bucardo 4.4.8 on a postgreSQL 8..4.8 database

I have been running this master slave configuration for a long time.
We recently updated our schema(adding a lot of new columns etc. to a
lot of tables). To accommodate these changes I performed the following
steps:
1) I stop bucardo 
2) I remove all tables from bucardo
3) I remove the herd that these tables belonged to 
On the database side (Master) 
I drop the schema and recreate the schema and all its tables (new
columns)
I load the tables through program code which generates millions of
records to these tables (100).
I do a pg_dump of this schema and copy it over to the slave database
On the slave database:
I drop all the replicated tables and run pg_restore.

On both system I analyze these tables 
On the master database I
4) I add the tables back into bucardo
5) I create the herd for them
6) and I start bucardo 
Bucardo goes through checks and generates the following record for each
of the tables 
[Mon Aug  6 09:16:07 2012]  CTL   Herd member 19494511:
ac_5300_18b_esri.fence
[Mon Aug  6 09:16:07 2012]  CTL     Target oids: agis_slave:4480021

I update some columns in a table to test replication and nothing
happens. I have tried to do several commands to get bucardo to start
processing the new changes (reload, kick etc.) but still nothing.  I
suspect the "Latest bad reason: Controller cleaning out unstarted q
entry  " is causing the problem but not sure how to fix this? Should I
have deleted the sync's?
