Hi,

 

We are using PostgreSQL 8.3 on Windows Server.

The db crashed and now it fails to start up.

 

The error is:

FATAL:  could not access status of transaction 4020264

DETAIL:  Could not read from file "pg_clog/0003" at offset 212992: No error.

 

Additional log from event viewer:

LOG:  database system was interrupted; last known up at 2012-07-12 11:35:00 CEST

 

 

How can we recover from the current state?

 



Please perform below steps:

1. Backup the current pg_clog/0003 file in different directory

2. Create a file by assumption of  make the uncommitted record as they haven't been committed. command as follows:

dd if=/dev/zero of=<data directory location>/pg_clog/0003   bs=256K count=1 

3. Start the Cluster
