<para>
These parameters enable various debugging output to be emitted.
When set, they print the resulting parse tree, the query rewriter
output, or the execution plan for each executed query.
These messages are emitted at <literal>LOG</> message level, so by
default they will appear in the server log but will not be sent to the
client. You can change that by adjusting
<xref linkend="guc-client-min-messages"> and/or
<xref linkend="guc-log-min-messages">.
These parameters are off by default.

<para>
These parameters enable various debugging output to be emitted.
For each executed query, they print
the resulting parse tree, the query rewriter output, or the
execution plan. <varname>debug_pretty_print</varname> indents
these displays to produce a more readable but much longer
output format. <varname>client_min_messages</varname> or
<varname>log_min_messages</varname> must be
<literal>DEBUG1</literal> or lower to actually send this output
to the client or the server log, respectively.
These parameters are off by default.
When set, <varname>debug_pretty_print</varname> indents the messages
produced by <varname>debug_print_parse</varname>,
<varname>debug_print_rewritten</varname>, or
<varname>debug_print_plan</varname>. This results in more readable
but much longer output than the <quote>compact</> format used when
it is off. It is on by default.
