Re: could not rename temporary statistics file "/run/shm/pgstat.tmp" to "/run/shm/pgstat.stat": No such file or directory

I use Debian 7, Postgres 9.1, Kernel 3.2.0-3-amd64
Syslog says nothing about postgres during this time.
SELinux is not installed/active.

I also found this (2 hours later) in the postgres log:

2014-04-22 11:01:42 CEST LOG:  could not open temporary statistics file
"/run/shm/pgstat.tmp": Permission denied

I don't understand what's going on there:

ls -la /run/shm/
