When replicating to version 14.21 from version 14.20 we encountered the fol= lowing error:

The server would restart, but the issue would crop up again within 30= mins (different offsets)

After rolling back to version 14.20 the environment is stable again.<= /span>

I'm guessing this is the exact same issue as https://www.postgresql.org/me= ssage-id/CACV2tSw3VYS7d27ftO_cs%2BaF3M54%2BJwWBbqSGLcKoG9cvyb6EA%40mail.gma= il.com=C2=A0I just wanted to log that the issue is affecting other versions as well.
