I am new to bg_workers so this may be my user error,
but when I build and run the contrib/worker_spi
extension, I find that :
. starting postgres with the extension named in shared_preload_libraries :
its _PG_init is invoked as expected but no process is started -
it is as though RegisterBackgroundWorker did nothing
. creating the extension and then
psql ... "select worker_spi_launch(2);" :
I see
28409 28288 ? 463508 00:05 00:00:00 0.0 postgres: bgworker: worker 2
as expected.
Is there maybe some bug in postmaster's processing of
workers marked as start_at = BgWorkerStart_RecoveryFinished
in 9.4.4?
Cheers, John
