I get the following error message when doing a select on a table:

ERROR:  invalid page header in block 295 of relation "reported_titles"

I found some messages that said this means a block of this table is corrupt. I found some suspicious lines in the server log just before:

ERROR: could not access status of transaction 3651584
DETAIL: could not open file "/usr/local/pgsql/data/pg_clog/0003": No such file or directory


How do I fix this corruption? I have dumped as much of the databases as I can including about half of this table. Only this table is corrupt.

What could cause the corruption? We are using custom C code. Could bugs in this be causing it? Or is hardware problems more likely?
