I'm getting the following errors and I'm not quite sure what to do at this
point. The database is very large and I can't get it to accept commands. Please
help!
maindb =# create table test1();
ERROR: database is not accepting commands to avoid wraparound data loss in
database "maindb"
HINT: Stop the postmaster and use a standalone backend to vacuum database
"maindb".
You might also need to commit or roll back old prepared transactions.
[r...@p00c01s01-dbm04 data]# su postgres
bash-3.2$ postgres --single -D /data1/pg2/home/data -O maindb

within 1000000 transactions
- - 2010-06-27 13:07:05 UTC :HINT: To avoid a database shutdown, execute a
database-wide VACUUM in "maindb".
You might also need to commit or roll back old prepared transactions.

Type "help" for help.

I also reset the transaction log aftwards which didn't help. Any help would be
appreciated. Thanks
