Обсуждение: pgsql: Remove misleading hint for "unexpected data beyond EOF" error.
Remove misleading hint for "unexpected data beyond EOF" error. Commit ffae5cc5a6024b4e25ec920ed5c4dfac649605f8 added this hint in 2006, but it's now obsolete and doesn't reflect what users should really check in this situation. We were not able to agree on a new hint, so just delete the existing one and update the comments to mention one possibility that is known to cause problems of this kind: something other than PostgreSQL is modifying files in the PostgreSQL data directory.

Just FYI, koel is failing the pgindent test from this: - * This has also been observed when relation was overwritten by external - * process. Since the legitimate cases should always have left a - * zero-filled buffer, complain if not PageIsNew. + * This has also been observed when relation was overwritten by + * external process.
