Please examine the PostgreSQL server logs for error details. I think
they're in /var/lib/pgsql/data/pg_log on CentOS, as that's where they
are on Fedora.

It'd help to know your CentOS version, how you installed PostgreSQL,
etc. Are you using any extensions? PostGIS?

the PGDG rpm/yum repo of 9.1 defaults logs to /var/lib/pgsql/9.1/data/pg_log

other things of potential interest in this bug report would be any
unusual or exceptionally large settings in postgresql.conf, is this a 32
bit or 64 bit install

Good point. Please show:

     SELECT version()

and the output of this query:

http://wiki.postgresql.org/wiki/Server_Configuration

that query is useful enough that it probably should be a built in function

     select server_configuration();   or something.

maybe add data_directory and config_file to it so it can be a one stop
shop for info useful to help someone...
