Hi,
My production is running PostgreSQL v8.2.3 on CentOS release 5.2 (Final).
As part of our routine, we just wanted to make sure and practice once in a
while, whether PITR recovery process is performed without fail. When I
started the recovery process, after sometime, I see the following error in
the serverlog. This error was thrown after processing WAL archives for
almost 2 and half hour. I couldn't able to understand what is wrong by
reading this error statements, since it is cryptic technically. Can experts
help me in this regard? How do I proceed further from here?
I do have enough space in both my data/ and /mnt/pitr/walarchive/
directories. I don't think this is because of scarcity in disk space.
My base backup date: Aug03, 2009
recovery.conf

restore_command='cp /mnt/pitr/walarchive/%f "%p"'
recovery_target_time='2010-06-08 09:10'
