Can you get a core dump and/or a stack trace out of it? I noted that you're running Gentoo, so recompiling with --enable-debug, if it's not compiled with it already, shouldn't be a problem :). --enable-cassert could be helpful as well, though that does have an impact on performace. Let me know if you need help compiling or getting a core dump or stack trace with gdb. > I'm a bit loss about what could cause this.

If the query that crashed works when ran after restart, it's not likely that corruption caused the crash. You could take a backup with pg_dump; that at least scans through all data, so if something is corrupted in a table it will complain. -- Heikki Linnakangas EnterpriseDB http://www.enterprisedb.com ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 2: Don't 'kill -9' the postmaster
