Per the hint, did you check whether there are any old server processes still running?

Unfortunately I'm not sure what could have caused the original crash. ...Robert -- Sent via pgsql-bugs mailing list (pgsql-bugs@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-bugs
