Thanks Everybody for helping me out. I checked "pg_stat_activity"/pg_locks, but do not see any activity on the table. How to find a old running transaction... I saw this link, but it did not help.. http://archives.postgresql.org/pgsql-hackers/2005-02/msg00760.php Thanks asif ali icrossing inc Tom Lane <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: asif ali writes: > INFO: vacuuming "public.product_table" > INFO: "product_table": found 0 removable, 139178 nonremovable row versions > in 4305 pages > DETAIL: 138859 dead row versions cannot be removed yet.
So Scott's guess was correct: you've got a whole lot of dead rows in there that will eventually be removable, but not while there's still an open transaction that might be able to "see" them. Find your open transaction and get rid of it (pg_stat_activity might help). regards, tom lane ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 4: Have you searched our list archives? http://archives.postgresql.org --------------------------------- Check out the all-new Yahoo!
