postgres error : failed to read kind from backend

新安装了postgres master-slave 模式，连接上应用，发现如下报错

ERROR  - JDBC commit failed

org.postgresql.util.PSQLException: FATAL: failed to read kind from backend
  Detail: kind mismatch among backends. Possible last query was: "COMMIT" kind details are: 0[3] 1[1]
  Hint: check data consistency among db nodes


  从pgpool f&q查到如下描述：
  
  Why "SET default_transaction_isolation TO DEFAULT" fails ?
$ psql -h localhost -p 9999 -c 'SET default_transaction_isolation to DEFAULT;'
ERROR: kind mismatch among backends. Possible last query was: "SET default_transaction_isolation to DEFAULT;" kind details are: 0[N: statement: SET default_transaction_isolation to DEFAULT;] 1[C]
HINT: check data consistency among db nodes
ERROR: kind mismatch among backends. Possible last query was: "SET default_transaction_isolation to DEFAULT;" kind details are: 0[N: statement: SET default_transaction_isolation to DEFAULT;] 1[C]
HINT: check data consistency among db nodes
connection to server was lost
Pgpool-II detects that node 0 returns "N" (a NOTICE message comes from PostgreSQL) while node 1 returns "C" (which means the command finished).
Though pgpool-II expects that both node 0 and 1 returns identical messages, actually they are not. So pgpool-II threw an error.
Probably certain log/message settings are different in node 0 and 1. Please check client_min_messages or something like that.




从网上查到如下描述：

分析如下：


　send_to_where函数中，处在Master/Slave模式的时候，数据的增、删、改指令只向PrimaryDB发送。
　begin/commit这样的事务有关的指令，则既向Master送信，也向Slave送信。

该描述实际上是和官网上的描述有出入的，实际观察到的如下 log

　通过上述的分析，从pool_process_query→send_to_where　的调用关系，
　commit则既向Master送信，也向Slave送信，但是！
　由于子进程与Slave之间的网络通信被中断，pool_read发生错误，那么此子进程就exit消亡了。
　而此时，已经向PrimaryDB发送了的commit指令，已经成功，是无法取消的。

修改 postgres 备机上的hot_standby_feedback = off ，问题未解决，

更改pgpool 的client_min_messages =error,等待验证,依然无效

2016.4.14,

在官方网站上找到

http://www.pgpool.net/pipermail/pgpool-general/2016-March/004623.html

并且说是在pgpool3.6上会修复这个问题

http://pgpool.net/mediawiki/index.php/pgpool-II_3.6_development

只能等待了
