If you didn't actually do anything to cancel the query, then this
indicates that something is sending SIGINT signals to the backend
process. I'd bet on a "ulimit" or equivalent resource-limit setting
being tripped. Check what conditions the postmaster is being started
under --- generally, you do not want *any* active ulimit restrictions
on the server processes.
