[postgresql] Permission's error installing chart 8.6.3 and warning

[mkanakis]

I am coping this over from helm stable Charts.

Describe the bug
I have been using version 8.4.3 for a while now. Today I attempted to install 8.6.3 which led to a chmod permissions error.

After removing the chart and re-installing it with:

volumePermissions: enabled: "true"

It deployed successfully with an init Container as well but also gave the following warning:

postgresql 14:44:14.25 WARN ==> Data directory is set with a legacy value, adapting POSTGRESQL_DATA_DIR...
postgresql 14:44:14.25 WARN ==> POSTGRESQL_DATA_DIR set to "/var/lib/bitnami/postgresql/data"!!

I don't mind having an init container running, however I am worried to upgrade the rest of the containers due to this warning. Should I be worried upgrading from 8.4.3 to 8.6.3? Will this affect existing data somehow?

Version of Helm and Kubernetes:
Helm Version -> v2.14.3-rancher1
Kubernetes Version -> 1.17.4

Thanks.

Edit: fix styling

Hi @mkanakis.

only the path where PostgreSQL saves the data has been changed, anyway it is always advisable to make a copy of the data. Please check https://github.com/bitnami/charts/tree/master/bitnami/postgresql#persistence

Thanks for the quick reply @Mauraza,

Of course I will make a copy but I would prefer avoiding the hassle in the first place.
In any case, existing data in the old path will remain there, I guess.

About the chmod error, do you know what changed and I have to spawn an initContainer now?

Best,
Marios.

Could you copy the error of chmod? please I need to know when it's happened and which is the folder.
