Leonid,

base
global
pg_clog
pg_hba.conf
pg_ident.conf
pg_log
pg_multixact
pg_subtrans
pg_tblspc
pg_twophase
PG_VERSION
pg_xlog
postgresql.conf
postmaster.opts
postmaster.pid

and within pg_log there are log files

I think that those lines:

#---------------------------------------------------------------------------
# ERROR REPORTING AND LOGGING
#---------------------------------------------------------------------------

# - Where to Log -

log_destination =3D 'stderr'        # Valid values are combinations of
                    # stderr, syslog and eventlog,
                    # depending on platform.

# This is used when logging to stderr:
redirect_stderr =3D on            # Enable capturing of stderr into log
                    # files

# These are only used if redirect_stderr is on:
#log_directory =3D 'pg_log'        # Directory where log files are written
                    # Can be absolute or relative to PGDATA


within my postgresql-config (last one is a default) are responsible for
this. Did you change the logging directory?

Best wishes,

Harald
