Desperate help needed for Replication

[Chris M. Gamble]

I am trying to perform what I best understand as Multi-master asynchronous replication for postgres 7.3.3 servers. After researching, I tried the pgReplication project (and made the simple modification as listed in their mailing lists), but was not able to build the environment needed for Redhat 7.3.

My question is: is anyone doing this type of replication, and if you are not using pgReplicate, then what are you using?

Thank you,

1) I think the best shot should be eRServ

http://gborg.postgresql.org/project/...rojdisplay.php

2) Upgrade your DB server to 7.3.4. Your actual version has a serious bug
which can cause crashes of the system.

It most certainly would not. Erserver is good for exactly one thing
(and some people think it isn't good at this): single-master,
possibly-multi-slave asynchronous replication. Given its current
design, it will _never_ be able to do multi-master replication unless
it is "data merge" sort of stuff (e.g. table1 and table 2 on db1;
table 3 and table 4 on db2; and table1, table 2, table3, and table4
on db3).
