I think what we're looking at here is a screw-up in the process shutdown sequence. Perhaps caused by bad recovery from an attempt to send an error message to the already-disconnected client; but that's just speculation, and it's hard to see how to get more info without a core dump. I wonder whether we shouldn't promote some or all of these three error cases to PANIC, as they certainly suggest shared-memory corruption. And if it did panic, we could hope to get a core dump for debugging purposes. regards, tom lane -- Sent via pgsql-bugs mailing list (pgsql-bugs@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-bugs
