Subject: pg_clog (?) problem with VACUMM

Message-ID: <474C78E2.400@fmed.uba.ar> (raw)
Hi all. Well, im having this problem for the first time.
When executing a VACUUM, i have this msg:
gse_new_version=# VACUUM ;
ERROR: could not access status of transaction 118
DETAIL: could not open file "pg_clog/0000": No existe el fichero o el
directorio
Ok, wtf, i will create the file. So touch pg_clog/0000 and VACUUM again....
ERROR: could not access status of transaction 118
DETAIL: could not read from file "pg_clog/0000" at offset 0: Conseguido
I hope the error will still be clear due to the word "Conseguido", wich
will be something like 'acomplished', or 'obtained'
The database was created making a "with template=gse" modifiers.
Vacuuming the 'gse' database gives me no errors at all.
Here is the final lines from strace when triyng to vacuum...

Dont know what to do now.
Wait...i have some more.
When vacuuming a table at a time, i got the table making vacuum crash.
It's this one:
gse_new_version=# \d words
Table "public.words"
Column | Type | Modifiers
---------------+-------------------+-----------
page_id | integer |
word | character varying |
word_position | integer |
original_word | character varying |
Indexes:
"words_idx" btree (upper(word::text))
"words_page_id_idx" btree (page_id)
"words_page_id_word_position_id" btree (page_id, word_position) CLUSTER
"words_upper_idx" btree (upper(word::text) varchar_pattern_ops)
Im souspiciuos about the CLUSTER (dont ask why :-). Meanwhile im looking
for 'unclustering' tables and triyng again.
Server version: 8.1.2
On SuSE 9.1
Some other ideas will be apreciated.
Thanks!!
Gerardo.
