Richard Huxton,

Thanks for your detailed reply.

I am maintaining various database of same kind in postgresql.
Here I have shown various corrupted last line of output of select * from
pg_largeobject where oid = xxxxxx; in 5 databases.

I have used '\o e:\\filename.xml' before executing query and inspected the
output in that file.

Kindly look at the end of line in all 5 outputs.
First 3 output shows few missing characters.
But last 2 output is the perfect one.

1. Output of SFRS2 database:
2. Output of SFRS1 database:
> 3. Output of FASP_AVT database:

Let's have a look at the last few bytes of these three rows. For example, below is a very short file that finishes with "end<NL>".

SELECT loid,pageno,length(data),encode(data, 'hex') FROM pg_largeobject WHERE loid=340161 AND pageno=0;
  loid  | pageno | length |                             encode
--------+--------+--------+----------------------------------------------------------------
340161 | 0 | 31 | 54686973206973206120746573742066696c650a6c696e6520320a656e640a
(1 row)


It doesn't seem to be random garbage at the end of your rows, so lets see what it is.

Oh - things we can rule out:
1. Index corruption. We're not missing the last row.

Adding the length check above will show us if the row is truncated or full of spaces.
