Re: Errors in messages file

You could trace it in the log file by setting the following in
postgresql.conf

log_connections = true
log_timestamp = true
log_pid = true

You should be getting entries in the log file as -

2002-10-23 20:26:53 [18117] DEBUG: proc_exit(1)
2002-10-23 20:26:53 [18117] DEBUG: shmem_exit(1)
2002-10-23 20:26:53 [18117] DEBUG: exit(1)
2002-10-23 20:28:51 [18070] DEBUG: BackendStartup: forked pid=18130
socket=8
2002-10-23 20:28:51 [18130] DEBUG: connection: host=192.168.1.62
user=admin database=template1
/var/local/pgsql/bin/postmaster child[18130]: starting with
(postgres -d3 -v131072 -p template1 )

Hope this helps.
