It might be interesting to set a breakpoint within heap_update(), which is called by simple_heap_update() --technically, this is where the reported failure occurs. From there, you could send an image of the page to the list by following the procedure described here: https://wiki.postgresql.org/wiki/Getting_a_stack_trace_of_a_running_PostgreSQL_backend_on_Linux/BSD#Dumping_a_page_image_from_within_GDB You'll have to hit "next" a few times, until heap_update()'s "page" variable is initialized. -- Peter Geoghegan
