Assigning to me. Reassigning. Eric, you are absolutely right -- we must save the log somewhere. The fix is not that simple because the PostgreSQL backend generates an excess of messages that would eat up your disk space. We need log rotation but the backend does not respond to any signal for that purpose. We will have to pipe the output through a program that does that. We are working on that and in the future you will be able to inspect the log. The situation with the stale pid file is another bug, already reported (#71295), as the script should be able to recover from that. It will be fixed in a future release. Done finally in PostgreSQL 8.0. |
