Thanks for the reply. I think disk space shouldn't be the problem: postgres@farnsworth:/usr/local/pgsql/data/pg_log$ df -h Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on /dev/sda1 7.5G 4.1G 3.1G 58% / none 496M 228K 496M 1% /dev none 501M 140K 501M 1% /dev/shm none 501M 100K 501M 1% /var/run none 501M 0 501M 0% /var/lock It is an Ubuntu 10.10 running in a VirtualBox.
