Help!
I attempted to create a view like
create view pscscan as select * from psc, scandat where . . .;
which failed with a message about duplicate entries. I tried
another with
create view pscscan2 as select j_m, j_pts_noise from psc, scandat where . . .;
which worked.
I then tried to drop them both and the backend crashed
I tried to vacuum and the vacuum crashed. Now I can not
connect to the database at all (I deleted the lock file)
Now, postgres seems to create an empty file
"pg_internal.init" and crash when I try to connect.
What happened? Is there any way to save this? I have nearly
100GB in this database . . . sigh.
