I think you need to jump to 8.4.22 (the last one in that release) because this might be a fixed bug; and you should consider moving to one of the supported branches very soon, at least 9.0 but that one's going to lose support soon too so I may suggest something even newer. -- Álvaro Herrera http://www.2ndQuadrant.com/ PostgreSQL Development, 24x7 Support, Remote DBA, Training & Services -- Sent via pgsql-general mailing list (pgsql-general@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-general
