Re: "ERROR:" Messages

Redirect the output to a logfile of your choice. There was a huge talk
about this yesterday on the list.

#!/bin/bash
HOME=/usr/local/pgsql
LOG=$HOME/logs/postgres.log
USER=darren

ulimit -SHc unlimited
su $USER -c "nohup $HOME/bin/postmaster -D $HOME/db $@ >$LOG 2>&1
</dev/null&"

This script above is what i use to start the postmaster and as you can see
i redirect the output to the file postgres.log. There are also different
logging levels in the postgres.conf file that you can turn on.
