This database work with a delfi client under windows and with web interface.

And same time ago place on my hard disk finished! I found in /usr/local/pgsql/data/base/bit files named
pg_psort.xxxxx.xxwith wild size, like 200-300MB, & then I detect problem with this table, if I make: select * from
oprlist;this task is hang down and then I need restart postmaster. 


Please describe a way to repeat the problem.   Please try to provide a
concise reproducible example, if at all possible:
----------------------------------------------------------------------

Any time if I make select * from oprlist; I have this problem, or I make it from windows client, or from web interface,
ordirectly from pgsl command line. 


If you know how this problem might be fixed, list the solution below:
---------------------------------------------------------------------

Then I make: select * from oprlist where nicname='admin'; and see NOTHING! :(
But if I make select * from oprlist; I view normal record.
Then I delete this record and create a new one, now everything work properly, BUT! If I make: bit=> select * from
oprlist;
I have:
PQexec() -- Request was sent to backend, but backend closed the channel before responding.
        This probably means the backend terminated abnormally before or while processing the request.

HEEEELP me please!
With best regards!
