Since your message says that the file is completely missing, someone must have deleted the file. There is nothing you can do except restoring from a backup.

Making sure postgres owns the files and the access rights are restricted to rw------- prevents this.

Even a file system error won't lead to this situation, as typically the file remains with length 0.

Actually, the directory base and all its descendants must be owned by the user postgres. Check this or correct by issuing this command as root:

chown -R postgres:postgres /path/to/directory

The /path/to/directory has to be to the directory where base resides in.
