Those first two problems point out that you may have much more
problems than you think, so you should be careful with the way you do
things if you have a corrupted cluster and not employ shortcuts you
think may work. Here are some guidelines from the wiki:

This is hard to qualify as a bug by the way, and 9.4.4 is utterly
outdated. You should consider upgrading to a newer version as well as
9.4 is going to be EOL'd by community in a couple of months.
