Re: [GENERAL] archive_command fails but works outside of Postgres

Alvaro Herrera-9 wrote

I saw one installation with "gsutil cp" in archive_command recently. It had the CLOUDSDK_PYTHON environment variable set in the archive_command itself. Maybe that's a problem.

That's not the case here, I don't have this variable set anywhere where gsutil works.

Another possible problem might be the lack of %f (this command seems to rely on the file being the same name at the other end, which isn't necessarily so) and the fact that %p is supposed to be the path of the file, so you shouldn't qualify it with the full path.

%p is not the full path, it is relative to the cluster's data directory (as described in the documentation). Not using %f is not a problem - gsutil is invoked in the following way:

gsutil <full_path> <storage_dir>

Also, as I mentioned, the command works fine when copied verbatim from the log error message and executed manually.
