I think the logs are not enabled in my DB. So I set the following options in
postgresql.con file


you are using some options which came with later postgresql releases.


log_timestamp= true

ok

log_directory=pg_log

wrong (available from 8.0)

log_filename=%Y-%m-%d_%H%M%S.log

wrong (available from 8.0)

log_disconnections=true

wrong (available from 8.0)

log_hostname=true

wrong (available from 7.4)

log_statement=true

OK

you can review all runtime options for 7.3 here:
http://www.postgresql.org/docs/7.3/static/runtime-config.html



When you install the DB, the logs are enabled by default?
Would you pls tell me still what setting need to be done?


for 7.3, the default was to log to standard output.
so you will have to redirect it, either to syslog (by setting syslog =
1), or to a file using shell redirection, or with pg_ctl option.
see http://www.postgresql.org/docs/7.3/static/app-pg-ctl.html

 We are using PostgreSQL 7.3 version, installed in linux 
 system. Only DB is getting shut down 3-4 times a day. From my 
 application end I get Sorry too many clients error. 
 Refering the FAQ I maximized the DB session limit to 200.

 log_disconnections=true 
 log_hostname=true

 After restarting the system got the following error : 
  FATAL: postgresql.conf:131: syntax error, token=%

You can see in the documentation:
http://www.postgresql.org/docs/7.3/static/runtime-config.html#LOGGING

The parameters you used are for a different version of PostgreSQL.
