Hi Chris,
Based on your suggestion I tried to setup replication for my
envrionment and I ran into problems. To start of with initially, I tried
to replicate on the same host with one master database and one slave
database, I used the same expample as in docs for Slony replication and
it went fine and I could replicate the changes and I could see them at
the slave database immediately.
Then I tried to do the above setup where tableA is the master in one
node and tableB is the master in another node (in this case I used the
same host) and they have to replicate each other. I created 2 sets in
the initial configuration script and added tables to each sets , when i
run the script i get the following error :
<stdin>:44: PGRES_FATAL_ERROR select "_slony_example".storeSet(2, 'All
testslave tables'); - ERROR: schema "_slony_example" does not exist
I am attaching the script and also the environment variables i used
for the script. am I missing something in setup configuration or this
type of configuration is not possible with Slony.
Thanks! again.
