Postgresql.conf is loacted in your pgsql/data directory. For example,
mine is at /usr/local/pgsql/data/postgresql.conf.
However, logging usually needs to be set whough the command line which
starts postmaster. The debug levels just set what gets logged once
logging is started. There aren't good docs on this that I know of
online. Try some of the PostgreSQL books out there.
