   I follow up on my previous message. Just got two more crash today very 
similar to the first ones :

PANIC:  could not write to log file 118, segment 237 at offset 2686976, length 
5578752: Invalid argument
STATEMENT:  COMMIT
PANIC:  could not write to log file 118, segment 227 at offset 9764864, length 
57344: Invalid argument
STATEMENT:  COMMIT

for memory the first ones are 

PANIC:  could not write to log file 117, segment 117 at offset 5660672, length 
4096000: Invalid argument
STATEMENT:  COMMIT
PANIC:  could not write to log file 118, segment 74 at offset 12189696, length 
475136: Invalid argument
STATEMENT:  COMMIT

I dug a bit in the source code and the error is in XLogWrite in xlog.c. MSDN 
states that an EINVAL return code from write mean that the buffer is NULL which 
seem pretty strange. Any help on what I can do to solve this situation would be 
greatly apreciated.

One thing I forgot to mention on my first message. I'm running the 32 bits 
binaries on a win2003 64 bits and no antivirus is running on the machine.

Regards,

Cyril VELTER
