The problem we're up against is explained in src/backend/utils/error/elog.c: * Our problem here is that many syslog implementations don't handle long * messages in an acceptable manner. While this function doesn't help that * fact, it does work around by splitting up messages into smaller pieces. If you are fortunate enough to have a less-broken-than-average syslog facility, you could increase the PG_SYSLOG_LIMIT constant defined there. On the whole, though, I'd suggest not depending on syslog. It has other issues besides this one, like sometimes losing messages entirely. regards, tom lane -- Sent via pgsql-admin mailing list (pgsql-admin@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-admin
