Note
It is possible to log to stderr without using the logging collector; the
log messages will just go to wherever the server's stderr is directed.
However, that method is only suitable for low log volumes, since it
provides no convenient way to rotate log files. Also, on some platforms
not using the logging collector can result in lost or garbled log
output, because multiple processes writing concurrently to the same log
file can overwrite each other's output.
https://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/app-pg-ctl.html
-l filename
--log=filename
Append the server log output to filename. If the file does not
exist, it is created. The umask is set to 077, so access to the log file
is disallowed to other users by default.
