Hi, some developers were using the database, and suddenly no one could connect. Just only some connections that was established before. As soon as I was advised, I noticed that no postgres process were present, just only connections and they could run queries normally. Like this: desenv:~# ps -ef |grep postgres postgres 28010 27886 0 15:28 ? 00:00:00 postgres: desenv fabrica 10.90.2.116(57749) idle in transaction postgres 28013 27886 0 15:29 ? 00:00:00 postgres: desenv fabrica 10.90.2.112(51326) idle postgres 28051 27886 0 15:33 ? 00:00:01 postgres: desenv fabrica 10.90.2.115(51671) idle in transaction postgres 28110 27886 0 15:36 ? 00:00:00 postgres: desenv teste 10.90.2.14(48903) idle in transaction postgres 28134 27886 0 15:36 ? 00:00:01 postgres: desenv fabrica 10.90.2.115(60894) idle in transaction Strange that no log about what happened, were written. When I tried to stop, no process message was returned. Then, I started postgres again, and everything come back to run. Is there some patch to apply? Is it normal? Using PostgreSQL 8.1.4 on x86_64-pc-linux-gnu, compiled by GCC cc (GCC) 3.3.5 (Debian 1:3.3.5-13) Thanks Alexander _______________________________________________________ Yahoo!
