Question about pg_stat_activity - Mailing list pgsql-general

Hi,
When I run the following on my server:
SELECT * FROM pg_stat_activity

I get back <command string not enabled> for the field current_query.

I have stats enabled in my config file, is there some other setting that
I missed so I can see the current query?

I also thought that in 7.x it would say idle if the connection was just
sitting there.

Thanks,

Tony
