[ADMIN] pgstat wait timeout

2010-12-21 Thread Anibal David Acosta
Hi everyone.

 

I have been installed postgresql 9.0.2 on a windows 2008 x64 server.

 

The postgres is running, without any application accessing the server.

 

In the log appear : WARNING:  pgstat wait timeout 

This error appear constantly and some times when I do a query, very simple
query like create table, I get a timeout from postgres and in the log appear
several times: 

 

WARNING:  no hay una transacción en curso (in english that means “no
transaction in progress”)

 

Any ideas?

Have you tried searching?  A well known search engine finds about
3,840,000 results for postgres install windows.  Or try
http://www.postgresql.org/docs/9.0/static/index.html

In addition to the fine manual, there is a Wiki with some pages
which may help.  In particular:

[ADMIN] size of the database

2010-12-21 Thread Zoran muljevski
Database PostgreSQL 8.1.22 takes 2 GB. I deleted a table of 300 MB. But the
database still takes up 2 GB. I deleted the indexes of 200 MB but the base
still has 2 GB.
What should I do?

 

Thank you,

Re: [ADMIN] Data duplication when moving datafiles from one server to another.

 Data duplication happened on source server (that is, on production
 environment). This data duplication affected only on some tables,
 with some duplicated PKs and altered sequences (sequences value
 didn't match select max() and we had to fix it manually).
 
We rsync from production servers all the time, and have never seen
such problems.  Maybe someone else has ideas beyond my long shots
(below).
 
 Postgres version is 8.2.7 64bit on Ubuntu Server 8.04 LTS
 
There have been 12 bug fix releases for the 8.2 major release since
8.2.7.  It's not impossible that you somehow hit a bug which has
been fixed in the last 33 months.
 
http://www.postgresql.org/support/versioning
 
http://www.postgresql.org/docs/8.2/static/release.html
 
 Rsync command was:
 rsync -avt -lHpogDtx /srv/postgresql/8.2/main/
 r...@destination_server:/srv/postgresql/8.2/main/
 
Did it run successfully on the first try, or might there have been
an attempt where the target was mis-specified?  A space instead of a
colon between the target server and path might have caused the kind
of corruption you're seeing.
 
Also -- I would avoid using root for such things.  We have remote
root login disabled entirely on our machines, and limit the use of
that login to situations where there is no reasonable alternative.
 
 and was launched from source server.
 
I find it's harder to accidentally damage the remote copy, so I run
rsync from the target where possible.

[ADMIN] pg_clog not getting cleared

2010-12-21 Thread Scott Whitney
Hello. I posted this once before, but I'm encountering it again. 

Each Saturday, I run: vacuumdb -a -v. I have autovac on all the time. 

However, my pg_clog directory lists clog files going back to July. 

This is pg 8.4.4 on Linux (CentOS 5.5). 

I know this isn't a whole lot of information at this time. What more would be 
useful in finding out what's failing and where? 

I seem to recall that doing vacuumdb -f -a -v resolved it, which would seem to 
point to a database not being vacuumed, but that's sort of the point of the -a 
switch, right? I'm running this as the postgres user himself.

Nothing is failing -- clog is needed to track what has committed
until transactions are frozen.

Are you sure that wasn't -F rather than -f ?  The uppercase switch
freezes tuples, which would allow clog to be cleaned up.  This
shouldn't normally be needed, unless you have some other reason to
need aggressive freezing.

[ADMIN] Problems Upgrading from 8.2 to 9.0

2010-12-21 Thread Adib
Hi,

I have a very old postgres 8.2 server which I want to upgrade to 9.0.2
server, the server are on different boxes and the 9.0.2 is fully running. I
think that my 8.2 contains tsreach2 which none of my applications use. The
postgres 8.2 is running on Windows 2003 server and 9.0.2 is running on
Windows 2008 R2 server.

I used pg_dumpall --username=postgres  backup.dump on the 8.2 server using
9.0 binaries for pg_dumpall

on the 9.0 server I tried psql  --username=postgres  backup.dump and i got
tons of errors a small sample is below. I have no idea what these errors
mean or to get around them, any advice would be appreciated.

pg_dumpall dumps CREATE DDL for the postgres user but when I connect to psql
to restore it tries to create the postgres user which already exists how can
I tell pg_dumpall to ignore dumping the definition of postgres account it
already exists on the target database. I read through the docs on pg_dumpall
but could not
find a command line to do this.

*IIRC*, you need to load contrib/tsearch2.sql to database *before*
restoring your backup.

Is there some way to avoid restoring tsearch2 since full text searching is
now part of postgres 9.0, the apps that use the database don't do any full
text searching.
