I restart postmaster. Keep in mind this is only in development. I am using a postgres manager (EMS PostgreSQL Manager 2 http://ems-hitech.com/pgmanager/) and that is where I am seeing this problem. I was sure there were better ways to solve it than restarting, but I am not worried since we do not have this problem with any production databases.
The DB is a Debian machine running postgreSQL 7.4.2.

If so, do you mean restarting the PG postmaster, or rebooting the whole machine? Would maybe just starting a fresh backend (psql session) make the problem stop? regards, tom lane ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 4: Don't 'kill -9' the postmaster
