Hi,

 My postgres sessions, after being idle for 5 --6 hrs, crash on their own. 
Sometimes with error messages sometimes without. The message I get appended below. I was looking for suggestion to narrow down as to what could have caused this problem. System log doesn't show anything. 

Thanks.
Sandeep
