No. Where did you get that from, perhaps the manual needs to be clearer? The place to look is: http://www.postgresql.org/docs/8.1/static/runtime-config-logging.html#RU NTIME-CONFIG-LOGGING-WHAT set log_statement to 'all' and it will log everything, including SELECTs. But this will include statements that succeed as well, not just those who fails. > (2) Noticed that config parm 'log_min_error_statement' might > do it, but > not sure what each of the DEBUG* and other parameters > will buy me vs ERROR.

Yes, if you want to log only queries that fail, log_min_error_statement is the correct switch to use. If you set it to ERROR, you will get a log of every statement that causes an ERROR or FATAL. If you set it to WARNING, you will get a log of every statement that acuses WARNING, ERROR or FATAL. etc etc for the other values. In this case, you'll want ERROR or possibly WARNING. //Magnus ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 1: if posting/reading through Usenet, please send an appropriate subscribe-nomail command to [EMAIL PROTECTED] so that your message can get through to the mailing list cleanly
