Ack, though I believe is only a problem if you are not logged in as user postgres?
For the record (and too late to make any difference), yes. Our backups run as a low-privilege "dump" user, which meant that pg_basebackup didn't work.
This is an automatic notification regarding your Bug report which was filed against the patroni package: #1062204: Newly-created clusters have restrictive postgresql.conf permissions It has been closed by Debian FTP Masters <ftpmas...@ftp-master.debian.org> (reply to Michael Banck <mba...@debian.org>).
Thank you! Today I rebuilt a cluster and it picked up patroni version 4.0.5-1.pgdg24.04+1. My Ansible task to fix the postgresql.conf permissions reported that there was nothing to do, so this does seem to have fixed the problem for me.
