Hi all,
I want to log all PostgreSQL's output in a seperate file. Is it possible to use the syslog system to do that or is the only way to use the stdout method? If it is possible to use the syslog system, how should I do this (I have tried several things but nothing I tried worked)?
put these lines on your postgresql.conf
syslog = 2
syslog_facility = 'LOCAL0'
syslog_ident = 'postgres'
after this you have to configure your syslogd:
add these lines on yout syslog.conf:
# Postgres
LOCAL0.* -/var/log/postgresql.log
not forget to add LOCAL0.none in your /var/log.messages log ad
ad that "-" char in front of your file location log
now you have to SIGHUP both postgres and syslogd.
