Thread: rotate sql.log

I have a log rotator (script in ksh) and want to rotate postgres log file.
How does Postgres log? Through syslog? Or independently?

Saludos... :-)

Depends on how you built it and how it's configured at run time. If it was
built with syslog facilities *and* you started it with the syslog option,
it'll log to syslog. If in your invocation of pg_ctl you said to log into a
file, it'll logg into that file. Otherwise, it logs to stdout (stderr?).

Bref. L'affreuse déception pour mes auditeurs. Les malheureux. Sevrés du
suc de ma pensée. Soyons brave.
