This is for PostgreSQL 7.4.6 on hppa2.0w-hp-hpux11.00, compiled by GCC 3.2.2. I'm seeing the following 2 errors: ERROR: missing chunk number 0 for toast value 19319495 ERROR: unexpected chunk number 4 (expected 0) for toast value 19319495 It is always the same toast value. The table has 1.8M rows. I've identified the column and the row: $ psql -c "\d audit" Table "public.audit" Column | Type | Modifiers --------+-----------------------------+----------- value | text | cdate | timestamp without time zone | key | text | Indexes: "idx_audit_cdate" btree (cdate) "idx_audit_key" btree ("key") $ psql -c "select key from audit where key = '791015.o9'" key ----------- 791015.o9 (1 row) $ psql -c "select cdate from audit where key = '791015.o9'" cdate --------------------- 2005-04-06 00:00:00 (1 row) $ psql -c "select value from audit where key = '791015.o9'" ERROR: missing chunk number 0 for toast value 19319495 It causes all dumps and any access (via SELECT, UPDATE, and COPY/pg_dump) to audit.value to fail. I've tried to look at the underlying toast table per some old posts, but no joy. As usual, this is on a system with a downtime-sensitive customer. Any ideas?
