Hi
We have detected the following error in out PG logs:
SASTERROR: invalid memory alloc request size 4294967294.
I have searched for the error and was pointed to a patch on the
following link:
http://anoncvs.postgresql.org/cvsweb.cgi/pgsql/src/backend/commands/vacu
umlazy.c.diff?r1=1.61.2.1&r2=1.61.2.2
Where can I find this patch and is there a specific way to apply the
patch?
Your help is appreciated.
Regards
Marc

That IS the patch. However, why are you trying to patch pgsql by
hand? Seems a hard way to do things.
What version of pgsql are you running and have you tried just
updating to the latest release in your branch?

with the command patch -p0 if you have linux. You must create a mirror
of the directory
that contains the postgresql source.

That commit is three years old; if you are running a version that doesn't
include it, there is more than reason enough for an update.
