Your problem is a RDBMS problem, not a WWW server one. The PostgreSQL
mailing lists (see http://www.postgresql.org/users-lounge/index.html) are a
better place to ask.

It starts with "pg_", so it's Postgres' meta-data (internal administration).

Apparently one of Postgres' internal indexes got corrupted.

Follow the suggestion given in the warning: recreate index
pg_attribute_relid_attnum_index, presumably [*] using something like

        DROP INDEX pg_attribute_relid_attnum_index;
        CREATE UNIQUE INDEX pg_attribute_relid_attnum_index ON 
                pg_attribute(attrelid,attnum);

(as database user 'postgres').

HTH,
Ray

[*] I'm just guessing from '\d pg_attribute_relid_attnum_index' and '\d
pg_attribute' - back up your database (using "pg_dump") before trying this.
