Re: Standby stopped working after PANIC: WAL contains references to invalid pages

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Re-seeding the standby with a full base backup does seem to make the error go away.
The standby started, caught up and has been working for about 2 hours.

The file in the error message was an index.  We rebuilt it just in case.
Is there any way to debug the issue at this point?

Looks like some kind of data corruption.  Question is whether it came from the master, or was created by the standby.  If you re-seed the standby with a full (base) backup, does the problem go away?
