Greetings,


Does anyone know what is this error?

ERROR:  cache lookup for userid 26 failed

Some system tables are inacessible in my database but I can access others. I tried to check pg_tables, but it's blocked
:

persona=> select * from pg_tables;
ERROR:  cache lookup for userid 26 failed
persona=>

The table pg_class tells me that I'm the user of the table (me, postgres user), but always I get this msg. What can be
doneto kick it out? 

persona=>  select * from pg_class
persona-> ;

My linux users are ok. Postgres has 26 as user_id.

[postgres@bxsgalena postgres]$ cat /etc/passwd
root:x:0:0:root:/root:/bin/bash
...
postgres:x:26:26:PostgreSQL Server:/home/postgres:/bin/bash


[postgres@bxsgalena postgres]$ cat /etc/group
root:x:0:root
...
postgres:x:26:


The database was working very well, but I don't know what was done to it, because another guy did the last maintenance.

That's all for now. Thanks in advance and my best regards!
