Postgres v9.6 reached its end of life today, so the playbook will refuse to run for you if you're still on that version.
Synapse still supports v9.6 (for now), but we're retiring support for it early, to avoid having to maintain support for so many Postgres versions. Users that are still on Postgres v9.6 can easily [upgrade Postgres](docs/maintenance-postgres.md#upgrading-postgresql) via the playbook.
