That's because log_rotation_age expects the setting value in minutes. This is not a problem only for log_rotation_age. When setting the parameter which expects the value in seconds to less than one second, the setting value is implicitly reset to the default. For example, postgres=# SHOW tcp_keepalives_idle ; tcp_keepalives_idle --------------------- 7200 (1 row) postgres=# SET tcp_keepalives_idle TO '10ms'; SET postgres=# SHOW tcp_keepalives_idle ; tcp_keepalives_idle --------------------- 7200 (1 row) postgres=# SET tcp_keepalives_idle TO '1024ms'; SET postgres=# SHOW tcp_keepalives_idle ; tcp_keepalives_idle --------------------- 1 (1 row) Regards, -- Fujii Masao -- Sent via pgsql-docs mailing list (pgsql-docs@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-docs
