Bug reference: 13143
Logged by: Patrice Drolet
Email address: pdrolet@infodata.ca
PostgreSQL version: 9.4.1
Operating system: Windows 2008r2
Description:
I have experienced it many times. The master streams to the slave for days
and no problem (using a replication slot). If I stop the master, it does not
want to restart and I have this error in the log:
2015-04-24 04:47:12 EDT LOG: le système de bases de données a été arrêté Ã
2015-04-24 04:44:37 EDT
2015-04-24 04:47:12 EDT PANIC: n'a pas pu synchroniser sur disque (fsync)
le fichier « pg_replslot/node_win2012sec/state » : Bad file descriptor
2015-04-24 04:47:12 EDT LOG: processus de lancement (PID 23180) quitte avec
le code de sortie 3
2015-04-24 04:47:12 EDT LOG: annulation du démarrage à cause d'un échec
dans le processus de lancement
To restart the server, I have to manually delete the folder in pg_replslot.
But then I need to re build the slave. Not very practical for a multi
gigabyte database.
