Hi list, well now i know why it doesn't work. As the copy command did not work for a while the wal-files where gathering like mad and, as a beginner, i thought in order to clean up some disk space i should delete them. Well, that was probably the most stupid thing to do, because now pgsql tries to copy non-existing wal-files back and forth, which, as you might imagine, does not work very well. Is there a way to reset pgsql regarding the wal files and to tell it to start all over again to make wal files? I tried to restart the server, but without success. Please help
you deleted wal files out of pg_xlog from a running server? have a recent backup? merlin
