From e90371d1a79f4398867f4f3bb8547e94259b07b5 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Tom Lane Date: Tue, 8 Dec 2015 17:14:46 -0500 Subject: [PATCH] Make failure to open psql's --log-file fatal. Commit 344cdff2c made failure to open the target of --output fatal. For consistency, the --log-file switch should behave similarly. Like the previous commit, back-patch to 9.5 but no further.
