Thread: Postgres log help - Postgresql-8.3.5

Did you issue the reload command using pg_ctl after editing your
postgresql.conf, to tell the server to pick up the changes?

If you issue the following within a psql session, it will tell you what
config value the server is currently using:

    show log_line_prefix;

Looks like either your server hasn't reloaded the updated config file,
or you edited the wrong config file.
