I already do this, but i can't find my log file
FYI, i just wanna to log every SQL statement.
Remember to touch /var/log/postgresql before restarting syslogd (kill
-HUP syslog-pid). Chmod 0700 so only root can read the log-file.
Adjust log_min_duration_statement to your needs.
i don't understand "to touch /var/log/postgresql"
Hello,
another possibility is to have logs stored in a file by just changing
'redirect_stderr' to 'on' and 'log_destination' to 'stderr'.
This way, with the default config, all logs sent to stderr will be written
to 'log_directory' under the name 'log_filename', without having to change
syslog.conf (you just need to change postgresql.conf).
Additionaly, I added 'log_rotation_size = 0' to have on log file per day.
Note that in that case, the log files won't be rotated, you'll need to
check you don't store too many log file after a few months (as the number
of files will increase every day).
setting 'log_destination' to 'stderr' could also log every sql statement happen on my server?
My mission is to activate 'log_statement' to 'all', so that i can log all sql activity on my database.
There're 2 points in your question :
- what to log
- where to log
To choose 'what' to log in your case, you can change 'log_statement' to
'all'.
Then, to choose 'where' to log, you can either use the proposal in the
first answer, or change 'log_destination' to 'stderr' and
'redirect_stderr' to 'on'.
