Re: Problem getting sql statement logging to work

The problem may be in your /etc/syslog.conf file. It directs different
classes of messages different places, and can direct them to another
machine.

Hi

I am trying to log my sql statements to the syslog file.

I have the following entries in my postgresql.conf file yet it doesn't seem

to log anything.

The OS is Solaris 9

I am looking at /var/adm/messages and can't see anything from Postgres and
I
have run lots of sql.

I saw one article on the web which suggested setting debug_print_query =
on.
Is this an alternative way of setting logging ?

Thanks for any help.
