The following bug has been logged online: Bug reference: 6011 Logged by: MauMau Email address: maumau...@gmail.com PostgreSQL version: 8.3.12/9.0.3 Operating system: Windows XP and Vista Description: Some extra messages are output in the event log at PostgreSQL startup Details:
Hello, My software package embeds PostgreSQL as a data repository (thank you). The PostgreSQL server is registered as a Windows service with "pg_ctl register -w ...", and is started as a service with "pg_ctl runservice ...". The problem is that the following messages are always output in the event log at PostgreSQL startup, even when the log_destination parameter doesn't contain 'eventlog': [message 1] Waiting for server startup... [message 2] Server started and accepting connections One of my customers is very sensitive to extra unnecessary messages. They gave me a simple and reasonable question "Why are those messages output when event logging is disabled? Is this a bug? Is there a way to prevent these messages?" The expected behavior is that no message is output in the event log when log_destination doesn't contain 'eventlog'. I wish the behavior will be corrected in 8.3.x. -- Sent via pgsql-bugs mailing list (pgsql-bugs@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-bugs
