Attempting reset: Failed. Look at the postmaster logs for the error which caused the crash. There should be something there even if it seg faulted. Also, can you get a backtrace? Even with your current build if you attach to the backend that you're connected to and get a backtrace that could be useful. (run "select pg_backend_pid()" and then attach to that pid in gdb, type "c" and then after the crash run "backtrace"). The most useful would be to get a coredump from a debugging build but the two things above would be a good start. -- greg -- Sent via pgsql-general mailing list (pgsql-general@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-general
