I wonder if pg_reorg could be responsible for your problem? I know it does a few tricky internal things. > Is it still worth to make the copy now? At the moment everything is > running fine.

It's an OS setup thing, but generally a crash will generate a core file if it is allowed to. Use "ulimit -c unlimited" on linux in the shell that starts postgresql and I think that will work. You can test it by manually doing a "kill -11" on the pid of a backend process. > I have never done it before. But as everything runs fine at the moment > it's quite useless, isn't it? I meant a backtrace from the core file. If you don't have a core file, then you won't have this information.
