Hi! We use postgreSQL 8.1.2 in Solaris 9 platform to maintain very important business data. The postgresql DB was interrupted now: > more postgresql-2007-03-05_210154.log LOG: could not bind socket for statistics collector: Cannot assign requested address LOG: database system was interrupted while in recovery at 2007-03-05 20:26:30 CST HINT: This probably means that some data is corrupted and you will have to use the last backup for recovery.

I know the problem " failed to re-find parent key" has been fixed in the newer release. My question is how we can recover the data in this case? The difficult is the disk with postgres data system is full. Many thanks! Roger
