pg_log filling up with false logs

Postgres 8.4 on OEL 6.3 Linux is having issues that the DBs are not available at intervals. I bumped up the debug level to 4 and all I see in the /var/lib/pgsql/data/pg_log are logs that say..

FATAL:  the database system is shutting down
FATAL:  the database system is shutting down
FATAL:  the database system is shutting down

Although the DBs are not shutting down. Also pg_ctl command to stop, restart does not seem to have any effect.
Does anyone have any ideas?

I can't speak to what issued the shutdown command, but have you tried "pg_ctl restart -m fast" to expedite the restart (if that is indeed what you are after) ?
