Hi, I thought a bug was in the init script. Below will fail redirection on Bash. And OPTS parameter isn't set anywhere. $PGPOOLDAEMON -f $PGPOOLCONF $OPTS & >> "$PGPOOLLOG" 2>&1 < /dev/null My idea of modification $PGPOOLDAEMON -f $PGPOOLCONF -n >> "$PGPOOLLOG" 2>&1 < /dev/null & Regards -- Toshihiro Kitagawa SRA OSS, Inc.
