Package: postgresql-9.1
Version: 9.1.9-1
Severity: important
Hello,
I have my /var/log stored on ramdisk/tmpfs so that everytime I reboot, my logs
get wiped Normally that isn't a problem, but for postgresql, it is as
postgresql will not start automatically after reboot..
Aya:/home/david# /etc/init.d/postgresql start
[FAIL] Starting PostgreSQL 9.1 database server: main[....] Error: Could not
create log file /var/log/postgresql/postgresql-9.1-main.log ... failed!
failed!
Aya:/home/david# mkdir /var/log/postgresql
Aya:/home/david# /etc/init.d/postgresql start
[ ok ] Starting PostgreSQL 9.1 database server: main.
Aya:/home/david#
So everytime I reboot, I need to make a directory for postgres to store it's
log files, not fun!
