Symptoms
How do I disable the escape string warnings for postgres?/var partition filling up due to excessive logging in server.postmaster WARNING (server.postmaster): WARNING: nonstandard use of \\ in a string literal at character
Cause
The escape_string_warning configuration parameter for postgres is on by default and can, in certain environments, cause excessive logging in the server.postmaster log.
Resolution
You will need to disable the escape_string_warning configuration parameter for postgres. Open the $VOYENCE_HOME/db/controldb/data/postgresql.conf file for editing. Locate the escape_string_warning parameter. It should look similar to the below line: #escape_string_warning = off Remove the comment from the line so that it reads as follows: escape_string_warning = off Save your changes to the file. Restart all services on the application/database server. /etc/init.d/vcmaster restart
