I have a PostgreSQL DB at my computer and I have an application that runs queries on it.
How can I see which queries has run on my DB?
I use a Linux computer and pgadmin.
Turn on the server log:
This will log every call to the database server.
I would not use
log_statement = allon a production server. Produces huge log files.The manual about logging-parameters:
Resetting the
log_statementparameter requires a server reload (SIGHUP). A restart is not necessary. Read the manual on how to set parameters.Don’t confuse the server log with pgAdmin’s log. Two different things!
You can also look at the server log files in pgAdmin, if you have access to the files (may not be the case with a remote server) and set it up correctly. In pgadmin III, have a look at:
Tools -> Server status. That option was removed in pgadmin4.I prefer to read the server log files with
vim(or any editor / reader of your choice).
