Обсуждение: logging a psql script

Hello,  I would like my psql script to log everything that it does.
I set the following

\set ECHO all
\o foo.txt
\qecho

some sql, some ddl, etc...

\o


But foo.txt only contains

DROP
DROP
DROP
CREATE
CREATE
CREATE

I want it to contain everything that I see on the screen, what am I
missing?

Thanks

Ken

Dunno how you do it via \o; what I do is run the postmaster with the
-d 2 option and then log everything to syslogd. This will log every query
in detail. It's very convenient while you're developing and testing,
especially if you run a separate window with

tail -f /wherever/you/write/your/postgres.log

Issue the command "script" before you start psql.
It will record everything you see on you screen provided it is not piped 
into another program such as "more"  or "less".

man script

for the details.

On UNIX/UNIX-like machines, use the script(1) command (man script for
details).
