No. But that makes me think more of the startup on command prompt as non-production usage. > Another question I have is that I have seen Postgres fail to start because > of missing dependent libraries, which happened after the postmaster startup > as this was reported in the logs, could it be a problem with this patch? > If the system waits for an operator to close this pop-up window, then it > becomes harder to check automatically such failures and relies on the test > application to timeout, if it is wise enough to do, which is not always > the case.. I guess that is due to some missing files related to the libraries listed in shared_preload_library. If so, no, because this patch relates to failure before main(). Regards Takayuki Tsunakawa
