And the other thing that I have found puzzling is that there *is* already a log file in the main postgres dir, right next to postgresql.cong (/etc/postgresql/8.2/main).

What's the difference between the log file that was already there and the one that I'm trying to create via the conf file mods? novnov wrote: > > I am rather unsure of postgres logging, but I think the way to go is to > unrem some of the lines in postgresql.conf, restart the db.
