Hello

I have an issue with WAL settings with postgress 10.1 used for zabbix monitoring system. When i change WAL setting to "minimal" the database goes down. We used this setting in version 9.4 to improve performance of our monitoring server so i would like to replicate this setting.

Settings replica or logical works perfectly fine.

Error:
postgres@zabbix:~$ psql -U postgres -d zabbix
psql: could not connect to server: No such file or directory
    Is the server running locally and accepting
    connections on Unix domain socket "/var/run/postgresql/.s.PGSQL.5432"?
postgres@zabbix:~$

# -----------------------------
# PostgreSQL configuration file

#
# This file consists of lines of the form:
#
#   name = value
#
# (The "=" is optional.)  Whitespace may be used.  Comments are introduced with
# "#" anywhere on a line.  The complete list of parameter names and allowed
# values can be found in the PostgreSQL documentation.
#
# The commented-out settings shown in this file represent the default values.
# Re-commenting a setting is NOT sufficient to revert it to the default value;
# you need to reload the server.
#
# This file is read on server startup and when the server receives a SIGHUP
# signal.  If you edit the file on a running system, you have to SIGHUP the
# server for the changes to take effect, run "pg_ctl reload", or execute
# "SELECT pg_reload_conf()".  Some parameters, which are marked below,
# require a server shutdown and restart to take effect.
#
# Any parameter can also be given as a command-line option to the server, e.g.,
# "postgres -c log_connections=on".  Some parameters can be changed at run time
# with the "SET" SQL command.

Wow thank you, i checked that this was commented out in 9.4 but with setting = 0, but 10.1 has this commented with = 10 so i assume its default value.

10 is the default value, as is wal_level = “replica”.

 

By the way, if you had checked your postgresql-10-main.log after you sent the reload command (always a good idea), it gives exactly this hint as I remember.

No worries … we’ve all been there.  Thankfully for Postgres there is pretty much just the one log file.

 

Postgres has a nice habit of giving (often very) helpful error message-based hints in the log file.  It helped me more than a little in my learning curve.
