Hi there,

I have mission-critical data running on PostgreSQL 8.3. My database got corrupted a few days ago as I ran out of disk space. 

I had to run pg_resetxlog to get the database started again. I am now experiencing the following errors:

1. ERROR: t_xmin is uncommitted in tuple to be updated

2. ERROR: could not access status of transaction 61323662

  Detail: Could not read from file "pg_subtrans/03A7" at offset 188416: No error.

Does anyone know how to resolve the issues above? Would a VACUUM FULL or a dump and restore work? Or is there another way to fix the above.

Thanking you in advance,

Chitra
