However, when I quit the session by typing “\q” /after/ entering the command above, the LOG message appears. It does not appear when I query tables from my_db exclusively, though, i.e. when I do not access the Foreign Table. It finally occurred to me what is a likely explanation for why you're seeing these messages but I don't when I test postgres_fdw locally: probably, you are encrypting connections to the foreign server with SSL. I can reproduce "could not receive data from client: Connection reset by peer" if I kill -9 a psql client when it's using SSL, but not otherwise. Anyway, it's clearly not very nice that postgres_fdw makes no attempt to do a graceful shutdown of its remote connection. I don't know that this rises to the level of a bug, exactly, but if somebody wanted to send in a patch it'd probably get accepted. regards, tom lane
