Hi all,
We've been using postgres for 9 years without a problem until now! Two problems in a very short time!
The first one is described in http://postgresql.1045698.n5.nabble.com/Autovacuum-seems-to-block-database-WARNING-worker-took-too-long-to-start-td3264261.html
This is another one (not related I think) ...
Postgres server is usually working fine. All of a sudden we start getting these errors ...

See that there are 2 different databases involved. (database1 and database2).
Looking for distinct errors (among the many we have in the log) I find there are only 4 involved ...
base/271253899/271254075
base/273198960/273198979
base/273198960/273199235
base/273198960/273199253
and those files are not in the postgres base directory.
To fix it we have no option but to restart postgres (which restarts fine with a /etc/init.d/postgresql stop & start)
However, once we restarted postgres some data was corrupted. Tables that used to have 4,5 million rows had only 60 rows. As a consequence we had to restore from file system backup.
Once we did that, it worked fine for a few days until it happened again. We're worried it can happen again!
Could this error be a hardware problem?
We recently increased the memory from 8GB to 28GB, although it was working fine for more than 3 weeks.
We also recently upgraded from postgres 8.3.6 to 8.4.5, althought it also worked fine for a few months.
Upgrading to postgres 9 is easy for us. however, not sure that would help.
Some info of our server:
OS: Centos 5.5Kernel: 2.6.18-194.1.el5Postgres version: 8.4.5 (installation out-of-the-box using yum)Server memory: 28GB
Any help would be appreciated
Pablo
