Hi. I just logged into a system and found this in the log when trying to start postgres. LOG: database system shutdown was interrupted; last known up at 2009-12-07 06:27:33 CET LOG: database system was not properly shut down; automatic recovery in progress LOG: redo starts at 15/B320AF68 LOG: record with zero length at 15/B348B9B0 LOG: redo done at 15/B348B980 LOG: last completed transaction was at log time 2009-12-07 05:54:19.655173+01 FATAL: xlog flush request 15/B37CA000 is not satisfied --- flushed only to 15/B348B9B0 CONTEXT: writing block 0 of relation base/16386/119806_vm LOG: startup process (PID 27338) exited with exit code 1 LOG: aborting startup due to startup process failure And now I'm unsure what to do. (running postgresql 8.4.1) Any idea on what is wrong here, any suggestions on what I should do? I've found out that there is a command pg_resetxlog that some people have run in these circumstances, but I'd rather not run anthing before someone tells me what is going on. There is a backup (pg_dumpall) that is about 12 hours old that I think I could use if that is the best option. -- Sent via pgsql-general mailing list (pgsql-general@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-general
