Running Linux 2.2.14 postgresql 7.0.3 I am trying to run a vacuum and I get the following output vacuum; NOTICE: FlushRelationBuffers(menudt, 6): block 3 is referenced (private 0, global 2) FATAL 1: VACUUM (vc_vacheap): FlushRelationBuffers returned -2 pqReadData() -- backend closed the channel unexpectedly. This probably means the backend terminated abnormally before or while processing the request. The connection to the server was lost. Attempting reset: Succeeded. This is only a test database so I can blow away the table and rebuild it but if this is not a known problem then I could do some debugging.
