Odd concept. What is this reboot preventing?

It looks like your preventative daily reboot is not preventing the problems it
is causing. It is possible that the postmaster is not being shutdown properly
because, for example, there is a client still connected and the shutdown script
isn't forcing a fast shutdown. See pg_ctl manpage for infomation on the
switches.
As for worrying about the messages, there's no real error message in there,
aside from the 'EOF on client connection', just the normal messages on start up
from a bad shutdown. If you're worried, I would look at solving whatever the
answer to the daily reboot question shows is the problem.
