Hello guys,
I have still problems with dumping my database....
I have postgres 7.2.1 running on a solaris 8 server. When I try to do a
pg_dump of my database, I get the following message:
pg_dump: query to obtain list of tables failed: server closed the
connection unexpectedly
This probably means the server terminated abnormally
before or while processing the request.
I connect to the database and try to view the tables with \dt and \dS.
Now I get:
ERROR: AllocSetFree: cannot find block containing chunk 4c5ad0
I retry:
ERROR: AllocSetFree: cannot find block containing chunk 4860d0
I can view the tables with: \d tablename
Some people suggest a drive failure, but I checked that and found no
problems...
I REINDEXED the whole database... problem still the same...
Tried a VACUUM... still not working...
I must say that one of the table contains more than 3.000.000 rows,
another more than 1.400.000...
Select, update, delete, insert works, just the pg_dump(all) and the \dt
\dS commands...
I must say that I had this problem a few months before, I got some help
then, but that couldn't solve my problem,
I recreated the database from scratch and copied the data, to fix thing
quickly. Thing went well for about two months :-(
Now the problem raises again, and I'm trying to find a solution without
reinstalling the whole thing allover again.
Some advice/help from the specialists?
Cheers!
Wim.
