Thanks. It would've been easier if you'd provided a more concrete test procedure, but I've been able to reproduce what seems to be the same failure. I don't know exactly what to do about it yet :-( --- see http://www.postgresql.org/message-id/20362.1359747...@sss.pgh.pa.us At the moment it appears to me that this error could only occur in CLUSTER or its close cousin VACUUM FULL; ordinary database queries could not see such a failure. Does that agree with your experience? If so, this isn't really a data loss bug, so you should be able to just live with it until we can work out a fix. 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
