log database in which error occurs
Hello.
We have postgresql 8.4 server with about 40 databases. Postgres logs
error statements, but it's quite difficult to determine which users on
which databases caused error. For example, this is a piece of log:
May 11 01:36:46 pgsql pgsql[73794]: [7-1] ERROR: 42601: syntax error at
or near "(" at character 50
May 11 01:36:46 pgsql pgsql[73794]: [7-2] LOCATION: base_yyerror,
scan.l:907
May 11 01:36:46 pgsql pgsql[73794]: [7-3] STATEMENT: select count(*)
from forum_msg where grp_id=6709 (200 ok) ACCEPTED and is_blocked='f'
Are there any ways to log database, to which invalid query was issued ?
Are there any ways to separate general server errors and errors per each
database in several log files? I'd like general errors like SEVERE ones
to go to the /var/log/postgresql/general.log, and per-db errors on user
queries go to the /var/log/postgresql/db_$dbname.log .

Sure:
log_line_prefix = '%t ' # special values:
# %u = user name
# %d = database name

IIRC no, but you can use tools like grep to achieve that.
Do you know pgfouine?

Sure:
log_line_prefix = '%t ' # special values:
# %u = user name
# %d = database name
Thank you. Somehow I've missed this line in the manual.

Thanks for the hint. I've looked at it. Also looked at tail_n_mail
(http://bucardo.org/downloads/tail_n_mail.pl ), but this may be too
much for us. Especially, having php on db server is not desirable. Grep
may be my best friend.
