Something like WARNING: could not open configuration file "/foo/missing.conf", skipping Let's suppose a DBA is using this new feature to include some general company recommendations. If (s)he mistyped the name of the file, the general recommendations will not be applied and the DBA won't be even warned. That's not what a DBA would expect. -- Euler Taveira de Oliveira - Timbira http://www.timbira.com.br/ PostgreSQL: Consultoria, Desenvolvimento, Suporte 24x7 e Treinamento -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
