Hi Jeff,
Thanks for your reply.

this is the error message i got:
-bash-4.1$ pg_ctl start
server starting
-bash-4.1$ LOG:  unrecognized configuration parameter "wal_debug" in file "/usr/local/pgsql/data/postgresql.conf" line 162
FATAL:  configuration file "/usr/local/pgsql/data/postgresql.conf" contains errors


where wal_debug = 1 in the conf file.

One question: Do i need to uninstall first before I gmake install again? If so, any idean how to uninstall it?

Thanks~
Ning

Hi,
Does anyone know how to enable WAL_DEBUG?
I download postgresql 9.2.3 src code and compile it as follow:


modify ./src/include/pg_config_manual.h
/*
 * Enable debugging print statements for WAL-related operations; see
 * also the wal_debug GUC var.
 */
#define WAL_DEBUG 4


 ./configure --without-readline --without-zlib CPPFLAGS='-DWAL_DEBUG'

Either one of those works for me.
 

I don't see anything special log to the log file.

open running pgbench -i, I see a lot of things like this in the log, once I set wal_debug:

STATEMENT:  alter table pgbench_accounts add primary key (aid)
LOG:  INSERT @ 0/18BEDC0: prev 0/18BED78; xid 1838; len 34: Btree - insert: rel 1663/16384/12678; tid 1/8
STATEMENT:  alter table pgbench_accounts add primary key (aid)
LOG:  INSERT @ 0/18BEE08: prev 0/18BEDC0; xid 1838; len 52: Heap - insert: rel 1663/16384/12765; tid 46/29
STATEMENT:  alter table pgbench_accounts add primary key (aid)
LOG:  INSERT @ 0/18BEE60: prev 0/18BEE08; xid 1838; len 42: Btree - insert: rel 1663/16384/12767; tid 27/140
STATEMENT:  alter table pgbench_accounts add primary key (aid)

I even try to add a line wal_debug=number to the postgresql.conf, doesn't help either.


If I include literally "wal_debug=number", upon start up I get the self-explanatory error:

LOG:  parameter "wal_debug" requires a Boolean value
FATAL:  configuration file "/tmp/data/postgresql.conf" contains errors

If I replace "number" with a valid true value ("true", "on", "1"), then I get the above-reported WAL debugging log messages.

Cheers,

Jeff
