Bug reference: 6184
Logged by: Ding Yuan
Email address: ding.yuan.90@hotmail.com
PostgreSQL version: 8.4.8
Operating system: All
Description: Inconsistencies in log messages
Details:
Hi Postgres developers,
(I reported this a day ago and for some reason did not see my message appear
in the archive, so I am resending it again and I apologize if it seems
duplicated).
I am a student doing research on improving software's diagnosability by
improving the error messages. Recently I run a static checker on
postgres-8.4.8 and found that some inconsistencies in log messages in
similar situations. While we suspect some of them should be fixed, we are
not 100% sure since we do not have domain expertise in Squid code.
I am reporting 10 such cases in this report. We truly appreciate your
feedback on whether our findings make sense.
Thanks,
Ding
