Hi, Laurenz Albe,
I did a test with the truss command connecting it via the pid but it does not give any message.
As for the version of Postgresql, I would like to adopt what you indicate to me but I do not know a website from which to download the objects. I only know www.perzl.org. www.bullfreeware.com and www.oss4aix.com that for AIX 5.3 only make available the version I have adopted.
Unfortunately, I do not have the environment to compile the sources.
Thank you anyway for the help.
Best regards
Francesco

Can you arrach with a debugger and see where?

Well, AIX 5.3 has been dead for over 6 years. You really shouldn't be doing any of this, it is just asking for trouble. Why not use a recent AIX with a recent PostgreSQL? If there is a running 9.3 installation on AIX 5.3 somewhere that you have to work with. upgrade ASAP by pg_dumping it with a recent PostgreSQL and importing into a new environment.

Why do people so blithely and arrogantly assume that DBA can choose what hardware and OS version to run his software on? It's shockingly ignorant of the reality of life: you don't control the hardware, or the OS or the network or the application.

I didn't mean to sound arrogant, and I tried to help Francesco as good as I can without an AIX at my hands. I know from personal experience that you often don't have a choice, but I believe that the DBA is not just a gofer, she also has a certain responsibility. Part of that responsibility is to stand up and scream when the system is in a condition that threatens the security, availability and integrity of the data. And since no man is a prophet in his own land, you can give this complaint force by referring to external experts. This is something the PostgreSQL mailing lists can help with.

Wishes don't make resource to debug arcane issues on outdated platforms appear out of thin air. Greetings, Andres Freund
