On HEAD, the WARNING/HINT is as follows for the above case: WARNING: "wal_level" is insufficient to publish logical changes HINT: Set "wal_level" to "logical" before creating subscriptions. Shouldn't we simply change the HINT to "Set "wal_level" to "logical" or create a logical replication slot before creating subscriptions."? -- With Regards, Amit Kapila.
