Hi. I am running Postgres 8.2.7 on a Linux system for over a year now with no problems. Today one of the database users reported the following error: psql: FATAL: could not read block 0 of relation 1664/0/1262: read only 0 of 8192 bytes I tried stopping and restarting the Postgres server for the database. >From the logfile: LOG: received smart shutdown request LOG: autovacuum launcher shutting down LOG: shutting down LOG: database system is shut down LOG: database system was shut down at 2010-02-12 17:15:37 PST LOG: autovacuum launcher started LOG: database system is ready to accept connections But when I try to connect to the database, I get the error message: FATAL: database "subptf" does not exist I tried stopping/restarting the database several times. I also killed all user connections to the database. How do I fix this problem?
