Hi: I found the following snippets of error messages in the log file of a computer that is running Postgresql-7.2:
NOTICE: Message from PostgreSQL backend: The Postmaster has informed me that some other backend died abnormally and possibly corrupted shared memory.I have rolled back the current transaction and am going to terminate your database system connection and exit. Please reconnect to the database system and repeat your query. Is the error message above related to the following error messages below : DEBUG: pq_recvbuf: recv() failed: Connection timed out DEBUG: pq_flush: send() failed: Connection reset by peer DEBUG: pq_recvbuf: unexpected EOF on client connection DEBUG: pq_flush: send() failed: Broken pipe By the way, I didn't issue a kill to the postgreSQL processes so I'm surpise by the "unexpected EOF on client connection". Do I need to upgrade Postgresql? By the way there are some errors if backup a 7.2 db and restore in 7.3 db. In 7.2 you can do something like "SELECT CURRENT_TIMESTAMP()" in a plpgsql function, while this will cause in an error in 7.3. Do I need to change the hardware? ludwig lim __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? SBC Yahoo!
