What you *will* need, in order to even start the single-user backend, is to tell it to disregard system indexes (-P command line option). I wouldn't be too surprised if the corruption extends a lot further than the one index :-( but maybe you will be able to extract something after reindexing. 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
