Re: Errorlog empty

["Rossi, Maria" <maria.rossi@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Shreeyansh,  Scott,

 

Thanks for responding.  Here’s the value of a couple  log parms

 

gp07> psql -d postgres -c"show log_file_mode"

log_file_mode

---------------

0600

(1 row)

 

gp07> psql -d postgres -c"show log_filename"

log_filename

---------------

gp07error.log

(1 row)

 

gp07> psql -d postgres -c"show logging_collector"

logging_collector

-------------------

on

(1 row)

 

Also, we have a monitor that checks the errorlog.  This monitor appends the current log to an archive file (example,  errorlog.201503), then touch a new ‘error.log’.  After  the touch, the new errorlog is not written to anymore, until postgres is bounced.     I should also note that  new error.log is owned by the monitor ID:

 

-rw-rw-r-- 1 psgdba dbagroup     298 Mar 13 05:43 gl07error.log

 

dbagroup members are:  psgdba and instance-owner.

 

Thanks.

What about logging_collector? If that's not set, I think your log filename will be ignored and messages will go to stderr. See: <http://www.postgresql.org/docs/9.4/static/runtime-config-logging.html>

Hi,

 

Reload is fine no need to restart.

you can check whether parameters are configured using 

 

SHOW <parameter-name>;

 

 

May be there some permission issue to the log_destination folder.So once check the permissions and

Try 

 

log_filename = 'postgresql-%Y-%m-%d_%H%M%S.log'

log_file_mode = 0600

 

And let me know the output.
