There was some text earlier (see http://git.postgresql.org/gitweb/?p=pgweb.git;a=commitdiff;h=bd02e36141bb99e9ee4e0b80fd69464e0e6d91b7#patch18 or the corresponding one in the old pgweb repo). That can probably be adapted to be put in the new one - seems it was genereally just removed because there was no beta available, and the intentino wasn't that the page should remain useless once a beta was out.. -- Magnus Hagander Me: http://www.hagander.net/ Work: http://www.redpill-linpro.com/ -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers

[HACKERS] Beta 3
Heya all It seems like it's a bit trickier to find beta downloads than might be ideal.

[HACKERS] Beta 3 question(s)
Hey guys, I am just getting back into the swing of things (after a nice vacation and a not-so-nice move across country).. I just installed 7.1 Beta 3 and am playing with it (I'm impressed with the speed increase I've seen with virtually no tweaking BTW).. I see a lot of this when I'm importing data : DEBUG: copy: line 2865, XLogWrite: new log file created - try to increase WAL_FILES Is that anything to be concerned about? Do I need to increase WAL_FILES? If so, how? Thanks! -Mitch
