Re: pg_ls_waldir does not work on standy - Mailing list pgsql-admin

Hi,

We see below error when running the function on a standby instance

postgres=# SELECT * FROM pg_ls_waldir() 

postgres-# ;

ERROR:  could not stat directory "pg_wal": No such file or directory

It works on a primary instance

Listing log directory works in both primary and standby

postgres=# select * from pg_ls_logdir();
