This problem can occur if some other process is holding a lock on that specific file and so as a result not able to rename the file.

I am runing PG 8.1.4/Windows.
Over the weekend, I have had to restart the PostgreSQL service a couple
of times after PG hangs.
At the time this happens, the log is showing entries such as the one
below

Any ideas what may be causing this?
My database is currently 7.7 GB.
I have 54GB of drive space available, so it is not being caused by lack
of disk space.
My autovacuum parameters are as follows:
#-----------------------------------------------------------------------
----
# AUTOVACUUM PARAMETERS
#-----------------------------------------------------------------------

autovacuum = on # enable autovacuum subprocess?
autovacuum_naptime = 20 # time between autovacuum runs, in secs
autovacuum_vacuum_threshold = 100 # min # of tuple updates before
# vacuum
autovacuum_analyze_threshold = 100 # min # of tuple updates before
# analyze
autovacuum_vacuum_scale_factor = 0.1 # fraction of rel size before
# vacuum
autovacuum_analyze_scale_factor = 0.1 # fraction of rel size before
# analyze
autovacuum_vacuum_cost_delay = 100 # default vacuum cost delay for
# autovac, -1 means use
# vacuum_cost_delay
autovacuum_vacuum_cost_limit = 100 # default vacuum cost limit for
# autovac, -1 means use
# vacuum_cost_limit
Any suggestions will be appreciated.
