I think the "no such file" errno is probably actively misleading. I
took another look at the CVS logs and realized that in 7.1.2, there is
no guarantee that that message actually reflects the cause of the write
failure --- if write() indicates it couldn't write all the bytes, but
does not set errno, then the reported errno will be left over from the
last failed operation. We had patched this by 7.1.3, which is the
version I was looking at locally. Since ENOENT can't be returned by
write() AFAIK, it seems certain that this is indeed a leftover errno
setting.
In short, I still think you are running into some kind of
out-of-disk-space failure. I'm not sure what, but you might look to
whether you've exceeded the postgres user's disk space quota, or
anything along that line. Keep in mind also that an unprivileged user
account normally can't fill the disk as full as root can.
