Postgres says that it is in recovery mode.
The log tells me:
-----------------
Oct 30 02:21:32 daisy postgres[1122213]: [197] NOTICE: RegisterSharedInvalid: SI buffer overflow
Oct 30 02:21:32 daisy postgres[1122213]: [197] NOTICE: RegisterSharedInvalid: SI buffer overflow

....
My version is: -------------- select version(); version --------------------------------------------------------------- PostgreSQL 7.1.1 on alphaev67-dec-osf5.1, compiled by cc -std (1 row)
I see two postmaster's:
-----------------------
ps ax | grep postmaster
1182880 ?? T 0:00.02 /Postgres/pgsql/bin/postmaster -D /Postgres/pgsql/data -B 10000 -d 2 -i -s
1239853 ?? I 2:50.90 /Postgres/pgsql/bin/postmaster -D /Postgres/pgsql/data -B 10000 -d 2 -i -s
And there is no way to stop postgres:
-------------------------------------
>su - postgres -c '/Postgres/pgsql/bin/pg_ctl -w -D /Postgres/pgsql/data -m fast stop'
waiting for postmaster to shut down................................................................ failed
pg_ctl: postmaster does not shut down
The only possibility was to kill postmaster britally by 'kill -9'
Can somebody explain what may be wrong corrupted memory?
