Re: how do i log events for postgresql 7.0.3

hi all,

following are the stpe thru which i cud log postgres's activity to a log file. however, it is not final....coz whn i
restartedmy linux box, it was no more logging. so anyone idea to overcome this is most welcome... 

here are the steps,

1.    Create a file name postgres.log in /var/log (or wherever you want to create) and change ownership to
postgres:postgres(thinking that postgres is using the file to log events. if i'm worng PLZ correct me) 
2.    stop postgresql server
3.login as root and su – postgres
4.    postmaster -D /var/lib/pgsql/data >/var/log/postgres.log 2>&1 &
5.    CTRL+D and restart postgresql server (why restart becoz, when i issued postmaster command in step 4 the ostgres
serverhas started....any comments..?) 

any comments...?

rgds,
