Re: how do i log events for postgresql 7.0.3

hi all,

following are the stpe thru which i cud log postgres's activity to a log file. however, it is not final....coz whn i restarted my linux box, it was no more logging. so anyone idea to overcome this is most welcome...

here are the steps,

1. Create a file name postgres.log in /var/log (or wherever you want to create) and change ownership to postgres:postgres (thinking that postgres is using the file to log events. if i'm worng PLZ correct me)
2. stop postgresql server
3.login as root and su – postgres
4. postmaster -D /var/lib/pgsql/data >/var/log/postgres.log 2>&1 &
5. CTRL+D and restart postgresql server (why restart becoz, when i issued postmaster command in step 4 the ostgres server has started....any comments..?)

any comments...?

rgds,
