When making a filesystem level backup of the database using pg_basebackup, these symlinks are not backed up and pg_basebackup emits the following warnings: WARNING: skipping special file "./server.crt" WARNING: skipping special file "./server.key" Recovering the filesystem level backup thus requires the extra platform specific step of repairing the two missing files: cd ~/9.1/main ln -s /etc/ssl/certs/ssl-cert-snakeoil.pem . ln -s /etc/ssl/private/ssl-cert-snakeoil.key . To fix this, the locations of these files could be specified with the ssl_cert_file and ssl_key_file options in postgresql.conf. Alternatively, the files could be copied rather than symlinked. However, the SSL certificate and private key should probably not be part of the backup.
