"Input/output error" generally means you've got hardware problems. Have you looked into the kernel logs to see if there are device driver complaints? The other one indicates index corruption, which I might think suggested a Postgres bug if I hadn't seen the first one. You can fix that index with REINDEX, but you'd better deal with the underlying issue first before it corrupts data that's not so easily fixed. regards, tom lane -- Sent via pgsql-admin mailing list (pgsql-admin@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-admin
