Nothing in this query referred to types, so I'm not sure what custom
types would have to do with it..?

Considering this is saaying 'no such file or directory', I'm guessing
that somehow your data directory isn't what is listed in pg_settings..?
Alternatively, perhaps that table was concurrently dropped?
Are you able to provide any specifics about your system? Does the
database directory exist? Does that path look reasonable? I find it
kind of interesting that the OID of the database and the relfilenode are
so close together- exactly what did you do to test this query?
Thanks!
