Hi Everybody,
I have read chapter 17 of the current manual and learned
interesting options. But as I compare what's in the
postgresql.conf file to what I think I comprehend, I am
a slightly confused:
In the conf file I see log_destination is set as 'stderr'
and redirect_stderr is set as off AND they are both commented
out. Yet, I am accumulating log entries into serverlog file.
To me this is a fine default setting. So my question amounts
to be the following:
Can I just uncomment log_line_prefix entry and stick what I want
(such as %u, %d, %m, etc) into the quotes and expect to see the
logged lines be prefixed with username, database name, timestamp,
etc with all other things intact? I come from change-as-few-
things-as-possible-at-one-time-school.
Thank you in advance.
Regards,
Tena Sakai
