: Postgresql Error after recovery

От

Hello Community,

We have a critical situation where-in our production database server got effected by "Root Kit".

When tried to build a replication site by copying the data directory to a different server, so many files got missed while copying (this is due to root kit effect).

So, we moved the missing files individually one-by-one and the situation was a bit better.

We are struck with the following issue -

We are unable to connect to the databases, when we try to do so, we are getting the below error -

postgres=# \c oltp_db
FATAL:  index "pg_attribute_relid_attnum_index" contains unexpected zero page at block 0
HINT:  Please REINDEX it.
Previous connection kept

Can anyone please help us.

Regards,
VB

You have HINT given to REINDEX it. Use reindexdb from OS.

One more point, reindex the system catalog as "reindexdb -s"

Re-index option did not work.

Single user mode option did not work as well -

[postgres@localhost bin]$ postgres --single oltp_db -E -D /usr/local/postgresql-9.0.1/data
2012-07-04 04:30:47 CDT [26072]: [1-1] user=,db= FATAL:  index "pg_attribute_relid_attnum_index" contains unexpected zero page at block 0
2012-07-04 04:30:47 CDT [26072]: [2-1] user=,db= HINT:  Please REINDEX it.

Last option would be dump and restore. We need to avoid that reduce the downtime.

Venkat

How about starting the instance with ignore_system_indexes=true ? And do dump & restore. Am not sure on this procedure. Should someone here would have better idea on this.

I have restarted the cluster with "ignore_system_indexes=true" and was able to connect to databases.

I have started re-indexing, seems to be working fine. Will get back if i find further issues.
