Hi,
We are running with postgres sql 7.3.2. We were trying to create an index on a big table. The create index command ran for nearly 5 hours at which point we decided to interrupt it. Since this was interrupted, any operations attempted on the table on which the index was being created gives following error in pgsql log:
LOG: all server processes terminated; reinitializing shared memory and semaphor
es
LOG: database system was interrupted at 2009-10-16 10:44:54 BST
LOG: checkpoint record is at 150/71A0C0CC
LOG: redo record is at 150/71A0C0CC; undo record is at 0/0; shutdown TRUE
LOG: next transaction id: 1757299460; next oid: 43508941
LOG: database system was not properly shut down; automatic recovery in progress
LOG: ReadRecord: record with zero length at 150/71A0C10C
LOG: redo is not required
LOG: database system is ready
Any idea what this means and what we need to do to resolve access to this table again? We can see the next oid number increases over time. Access to all other tables in the database is fine. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Many Thanks
Neha.
