That is my thought as well. It sounds to me as though PostgreSQL was unable to complete the shutdown process. In such a state, the "database system is shutting down" message makes sense: no new connections are accepted because the monitor is trying to get rid of all connections and exit. If this happens again, I would suggest looking for other connections to the DBMS and find a way to close them. You might want to enable more logging in PostgreSQL, if this continues to happen, and see if you find any clues there. -- Mark H.
