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.

## (Breaking Change) The mautrix-facebook bridge now requires a Postgres database
**Update from 2021-11-15**: SQLite support has been re-added to the mautrix-facebook bridge in [v0.3.2](https://github.com/mautrix/facebook/releases/tag/v0.3.2). You can ignore this changelog entry.
A new version of the [mautrix-facebook](https://github.com/tulir/mautrix-facebook) bridge has been released. It's a full rewrite of its backend and the bridge now requires Postgres. New versions of the bridge can no longer run on SQLite.
**TLDR**: if you're NOT using an [external Postgres server](docs/configuring-playbook-external-postgres.md) and have NOT forcefully kept the bridge on SQLite during [The big move to all-on-Postgres (potentially dangerous)](#the-big-move-to-all-on-postgres-potentially-dangerous), you will be automatically upgraded without manual intervention. All you need to do is send a `login` message to the Facebook bridge bot again.

By default, it's `matrix-corporal` (controllable by the `matrix_corporal_reconciliation_user_id_local_part` setting, see above).
No matter what Matrix user id you configure to run it with, make sure that:
- the Matrix Corporal user is created by [registering it](registering-users.md). Use a password you remember, as you'll need to log in from time to time to create or join rooms
- the Matrix Corporal user is created by [registering it](registering-users.md)**with administrator privileges**. Use a password you remember, as you'll need to log in from time to time to create or join rooms
- the Matrix Corporal user is joined and has Admin/Moderator-level access to any rooms you want it to manage
### Using a locally-stored static policy
If you'd like to use a [static policy file](https://github.com/devture/matrix-corporal/blob/master/docs/policy-providers.md#static-file-pull-style-policy-provider), you can use a configuration like this:
To learn more about what the policy configuration, see the matrix-corporal documentation on [policy](https://github.com/devture/matrix-corporal/blob/master/docs/policy.md).
Each time you update the policy in your `vars.yml` file, you'd need to re-run the playbook and restart matrix-corporal (`--tags=setup-all,start` or `--tags=setup-aux-files,setup-corporal,start`).
