[GENERAL] Logging broken messages

От

Hello,

I’m trying to implement a version of the wire protocol but I’ve hit a problem: whenever I send a Close Statement message to the remote, it just hangs indefinitely. I suspect the problem could be on my side but I can’t find anything on my code that doesn’t match the manual.

Is there a way to configure Postgres to debug this? I’ve tried setting a number of log parameters but nothing shows up on syslog:

postgres=# show log_destination
postgres-# ;
 log_destination 
-----------------
 syslog
(1 row)

postgres=# SET log_statement = 'all';
SET
postgres=# set log_min_messages = 'DEBUG5';
SET
postgres=# set log_min_error_statement = 'DEBUG5';
SET
postgres=# show syslog_ident;
 syslog_ident 
--------------
 postgres
(1 row)

postgres=# 


Many thanks,

Wireshark has a v3 postgresql protocol dissector. It might be worth comparing your code with libpq and see if anything
looksdifferent.

Also, you could try attaching to the connected backend with gdb and
look at where it's waiting.

To cut to the chase, though: I'd bet you are either sending a wrong
message length word, or failing to flush your buffer out to the socket.
Either way the backend would be sitting waiting to accumulate the
full message.  If it had what it thought was a complete message, it
would be doing something with it --- either executing it or complaining.
But it doesn't really make any attempt to validate an incoming message
until it's got all of it as per the length word.

            regards, tom lane

I have written something like this recently without any problems. Maybe post the code if you think more eyes would be
helpful.
