We need more detail ... like, what ERRORs exactly?  What do you mean by
"incremental upload" --- is that INSERTs, COPYs, or what?

A daily VACUUM *is* standard procedure, cf
http://www.ca.postgresql.org/users-lounge/docs/7.2/postgres/maintenance.html

But omitting it shouldn't cause any problems beyond slowdown and disk
space bloat (at least in the short run).  So I'm curious as to what
you're doing.
