PGLOG problem

From
"Uday"
Date:
A simple question but since I'm not very conversant with PG if someone can help me about how to reduce the size of the "pg_log" file I have on my mail server database.
 
I have a box with RH7.1 for the mail server and a PG database for the mail users and a memory resident program which keeps on polling with the help of the database.  This keeps on increasing the size of the pg_log (which goes till probably the disk will be full) after which I suppose I will be in a total soup.
 
I tried deleting it once (obviously after taking backup) but then the system could not access the database and I had to restore the original.
 
Please all help will be welcomed before the system goes down.  Currently the size of the "pg_log" is approx. 300MB.  So it is pretty urgent.
 
Thanks in advance

I have searched all of the archive but nothing close.  Can you give me the
exact link from where I can download PG 7.2.3. for my RH7.1 box on Intel
PIII, as I was trying to google but there are so many downloads that Iam
confused.

Thanks

Hi there

Finally I got all the RPMS for postgres 7.2.3-1 from
http://rpm.pbone.net/index.php3/stat/14/idka/4289/datan/2002-10-30  and
installed all the RPMS.  Now when I try to start postmaster I have this
following error:

postmaster: error while loading shared libraries: /usr/lib/libreadline.so.4:
undefined symbol: BC

Now if Iam not wrong - Do I have to load a new readline package?

If YES then which is the correct version which goes along with this postgres
(7.2.3-1) and where to get it from?


Thanx
-Uday

I'm not sure what "BC" is, but on many platforms libreadline requires
libtermcap.  Do you have that installed?
