If you're lucky, it's just a corrupted index on the toast table for
"measured_bioassay_base", in which case a REINDEX will fix it. You'll
need to look at the pg_class entry for "measured_bioassay_base" to find
out what the toast table's name is. Something like
regression=# select relname from pg_class where oid =
regression-# (select reltoastrelid from pg_class where relname = 'measured_bioa
ssay_base');
relname
-----------------
pg_toast_597768
(1 row)
regression=# reindex table pg_toast.pg_toast_597768;
REINDEX
I would be interested to see "pg_filedump -i -f" output for the toast
table's index before you blow it away, if you have time for that.
