Shadow Zhang PGPool 配置错误定位 s_do_auth: expecting R got E

配置好PGPool以后，每次启动 pgpool -c -n -D      

都报 s_do_auth: expecting R got E      

2011-02-26 23:01:22 ERROR: pid 10365: s_do_auth: expecting R got E
2011-02-26 23:01:22 ERROR: pid 10365: make_persistent_db_connection: 
s_do_auth failed
2011-02-26 23:01:22 ERROR: pid 10365: check_replication_time_lag: DB 
node is valid but no persistent connection      

经过查找网络，终于定位到了问题，是 health_check_password 没有设置，设置了相应密码后，错误消除。      

另外：查看pgpool 工作进程命令      

ps aux | grep pgpool

在连接到主机的9999 端口时，报 md5 模式在 master slave, replication 模式不支持，请修改pg_hba.conf的错误。

第一步：在pgpool.conf 里 enable_pool_hba =on， 且密码文件 pool_passwd ='pool_passwd'

第二，pool_passwd 应该用如下的格式（注意，密码里以md5开头，且用户是postgres）

节选关键段落：      

[root at n3170 etc]# pg_md5 -p -m -u postgers
password:      

[root at n3170 etc]# more /usr/local/etc/pool_passwd
