Hi,
I have streaming replication set up, with PostgreSQL 9.3. The entries in
recovery.conf on the slave are as follows -
standby_mode = 'on'
primary_conninfo = 'host=127.0.0.1 port=2345 user=postgres
password=password'
restore_command = 'cp /pgdata/archive/%f "%p"'
trigger_file = ‘/tmp/down.trg’
In postgresql.conf on the slave, I have set
hot_standby = on
Replication is working fine. The trigger file does get created by the
failover script when I shut down the primary. But I just keep getting
these entries in the log file in the slave and it does not get promoted.
FATAL: could not connect to the primary server: could not connect to
server: Connection refused
Any suggestions?
Try pg_ctl promote on the standby server to see if it works at all:
http://www.postgresql.org/docs/9.3/interactive/app-pg-ctl.html
If it does then maybe your standby cannot 'see' the trigger file.
One more doubt -
In https://wiki.postgresql.org/wiki/Streaming_Replication, it says
"
# Note that recovery.conf must be in $PGDATA directory.
# It should NOT be located in the same directory as postgresql.conf
"
postgresql.conf is in $PGDATA. So they will be in the same directory?
Regards,
Jayadevan
