We got a spate of similar errors recently; turned out to be a disk was not mounted properly. Once it was reseated all
waswell. You might also do a RAM check just to make sure that something isn't wonky there.
IIRC, I was told (see the archives of the postgres admin mail list) that this is an errant index, so you might try
reindexingthe table and see if you get the errors or if they go away.

Subject: [GENERAL] Cause of ERROR: could not open relation 1663/856689/856777: Invalid argument?
Hi,
I'm running 8.1.4 on W2K3 R2. I occasionally get errors of the type:
ERROR: could not open relation 1663/856689/856777: Invalid argument
where the last two numbers change. This only seems to happen during
inserts into the largest table in the database (>500,000 rows). What
does this error message mean?
Thanks.
