Why both?: /var/log/messages AND /var/log/pgsql.

pgSql 7.4.0 on RH7.3

Hi,

It appears that pgSql somehow logs messages to BOTH /var/log/messages and
/var/log/pgsql. I expected that it would only log to /var/log/pgsql.

Any ideas? Thanks

-----------------------------------------------------------------
/etc/syslog.conf
# Save postgresql logs
local0.*                                                /var/log/pgsql

-----------------------------------------------------------------
/var/lib/pgsql/data/postgresql.conf

# - Syslog -

syslog = 2                      # range 0-2; 0=stdout; 1=both; 2=syslog
#syslog_facility = 'LOCAL0'
#syslog_ident = 'postgres'

It appears I forgot to add local0.none on the /var/log/messages line in
/etc/syslog.conf. Once added it logs only to /var/log/pgsql.

Strange though ... when I changed "local0" to "pgsql" in /etc/syslog.conf and
/var/lib/pgsql/data/postgresql.conf the logging stopped completely. Works with
local0 though. Anyhow

Thanks

The log-levels (panic,...info,...local0,...) are enumerated values
hardcoded in syslog; pgsql is not one of those, so syslog would not
recognise it or act on it.
