There was a thread on missing pg_clog files caused due to dodgy practices in glibc *last year*. I am seeing something similar *now* with a server
PostgreSQL 7.4beta1 on i386-unknown-netbsdelf1.6X, compiled by GCC 2.95.3 accessed by a similar client and a client PostgreSQL 7.4devel on i686-pc-linux-gnu, compiled by GCC 2.95.4 The following works: select * from olddata02_03vac offset 2573718 limit 1; however select * from olddata02_03vac offset 2573719 limit 1; ERROR: could not access status of transaction 1664158221 DETAIL: open of file "/usr/local/pgsql/data/pg_clog/0633" failed: No such file or directory and # ls -l pg_clog total 32 -rw------- 1 postgres postgres 16384 Sep 22 13:12 0000 # Is it true that the problem was with the server, so the fact that a glibc client was connecting and possibly doing a vacuum is irrelevant? What can I do now to fix it? Known problem with beta1 which is now old? Cheers, Patrick ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 8: explain analyze is your friend
