Sorry we missed that. > Stefan, > Could you check whether the patch fixes the problem you encountered? I think that would be a good thing to check (it'll confirm whether this is the same bug), but I'm not convinced we should actually fix it that way. Prior to 8.4, we handled a smart shutdown during recovery at the conclusion of recovery, just prior to entering normal running. I'm wondering if we shouldn't revert to that behavior in both 8.4 and HEAD. -- Robert Haas EnterpriseDB: http://www.enterprisedb.com The Enterprise Postgres Company -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
