At the very least you should be running 7.2.4. We do not make dot-releases for entertainment value, we make them because there are critical bug fixes. In particular, this 7.2.4 fix: * Ensure pg_clog updates are sync'd to disk before marking checkpoint complete might well have something to do with your problems. > I found that there are already some files > (mainly pg_*) tables/indexes are not being consistent > with the filesystem. > e.g. > pg_shadow_usename_index > pg_stat_activity > pg_stat_database Views don't have underlying files at all. Shared tables live in a different directory. You had better study the system catalogs more carefully before you start writing scripts to hack them. regards, tom lane ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 2: you can get off all lists at once with the unregister command (send "unregister YourEmailAddressHere" to [EMAIL PROTECTED])
