Hi, 

Sql query "select pg_last_xlog_receive_location(); " does not work during 
startup of standby database. 
TestScenario;
We have a active-standby system with PostgreSQL Streaming Replication beta2. If 
the active database is up the database is in use (read/write queries will be 
performed). Then the standby PostgreSQL SR will be started (the complete 
database from the active side is copied to the standby side; nec. Files for 
starting streaming replication are created). Directly after the possibility to 
connect to the standby system, the above given sql query will be executed. To 
this timepoint the sql query delivers an error. To a later timepoint (all wal 
segments are completly incooperated) the query delivers a valid result. 
Question: 
What is the reason for the error?
Exists a command to find out if the standby database is really active to 
accept/can work with sql commands? 

BR
Ingo
