Hi, The PostgreSQL of a customer database (running on Windows 2003) crashed and wrote the messages below in the logfile. According to the customer the drives are working OK, partitions are not full and nothing has changed in the permissions. The customer could restart the PostgreSQL service manually, without resorting to a backup. Could this be the result of not enough check_point segments? 2007-03-08 22:36:26 ERROR: could not read block 15894 of relation 1663/3227318/3227439: Permission denied 2007-03-08 22:36:26 STATEMENT: UPDATE deliver_cares SET org_personnel_id=$1, spent_time=$2, status=$3, when_registered=$4, actively_registered=$5 WHERE deliver_care_id=$6 2007-03-08 22:37:31 ERROR: could not write block 8 of relation 1663/3227318/4689678: Permission denied 2007-03-08 22:37:31 CONTEXT: writing block 8 of relation 1663/3227318/4689678 2007-03-08 22:38:57 FATAL: could not read from statistics collector pipe: No error 2007-03-08 22:38:57 FATAL: could not write to statistics collector pipe: No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it. 2007-03-08 22:40:00 PANIC: could not write to log file 9, segment 219 at offset 15073280, length 24576: Permission denied 2007-03-08 22:40:00 STATEMENT: COMMIT This application has requested the Runtime to terminate it in an unusual way.
