I had the same problem. First I had to dump and recover and all was
OK. As this procedure is not convenient the next time that hapened I
tryed to discover wich table had the problem. I made a
vacuum verbose table_X
for each table in the database. For my surprise I was not able to find
a table with a problem. Then I tried
vacuum
in all tables again and all was OK.
I have no idea what was going on...
and I haven't repetead the procedure yet, but
it was not necessary to dump/recover to make vacuum again!
