DB Crash, recoverable?

Hi All,

   Our database just reset and now I'm getting Errors in the log and I
would like to know if this is recoverable.  Here's the segment of the
log right before and after it reset.

LOG:  unexpected EOF on client connection
ERROR:  type "t" already exists

    PL/pgSQL function "fngetcompositeids2" line 14 at SQL statement

This has happened in the past, however the only way I know to fix it is
a dump and restore.

=> select version();
                                   version
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
 PostgreSQL 8.0.0beta5 on i686-pc-linux-gnu, compiled by GCC gcc (GCC) 3.4.2
(1 row)

Thanks
Michael

Hmm, looks like a previous incarnation of this table was not completely
deleted.  Does it help if you REINDEX pg_type?

You really shouldn't be still using such an old beta version.  There are
a heck of a lot of bug fixes since beta5 ...

I will try.  The last time this happened I re-indexed all the system &
user tables, clustered the users tables as well as re-created all the
user defined types & functions.  These steps didn't resolve the problem.

I tried poking around the system tables, but I didn't see anything wrong.

Yes, looks like I'll get to upgrade today when I do the dump and restore
;)

In that case REINDEX probably won't help.  You could manually delete the
conflicting pg_type row I suppose.

I can't see this row, could I select the contents of pg_type into a
table, truncate pg_type and load the table back up?

Thanks for you help.

No --- truncating pg_type is a good way to render your database
nonfunctional ...
