Hello Tom,
Thank you for this. Setting the transaction ID higher worked to allow me
to connect to the database but when I issue:
cybercentre=# select count(*) from users;
ERROR: XLogFlush: request 10/B7E93FCC is not satisfied --- flushed only
to 0/4000050
I get that error. Any idea? Should I just set the transaction ID even
higher? I have no idea what this error means ...
Thanks in advance,
/B
