I seemingly fixed the problem by stopping postgres and doing: balapapa 612249 # mv 11658 11658.old balapapa 612249 # mv 11658.old 11658 And the backup magically works. I'm gonna move the data to another disk right now. regards, Leif -- Sent via pgsql-general mailing list (pgsql-general@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-general
