Scheduled downtime finally arrived last night, and I tried
unsuccessfully to truncate this table:
postgres -D $PGDATA -O -o standalone_log mydb
> truncate pg_statistic;
> ^D
pg_ctl start
psql -d mydb -c "vacuum analyze"
The truncate showed no errors. The vacuum analyze showed the
same error in block 110 of the pg_statistic table. Any ideas
what I'm missing here? Is there another acceptable way to
truncate that table, perhaps "rm file; touch file"?
