Actually the server logging was disabled, which I am now enabling.

But scripts have been complaining about not finding this or that
relation with OID x. I've located each of the tables and am trying to
recreate them.

If I try to read from one, I get ERROR: could not open relation with
OID 16896

If I try to redefine it, I get ERROR: relation "bb_master" already
exists

If I try to DROP it, ERROR: cache lookup failed for relation 16896

How can I get around this? What's happening?

Tomorrow I should have better logs on the initially reported problem.

Many thanks
Jaime

This is not an interesting message: the interesting message is the
previous one about exactly what happened to the other process. Look
earlier in the server log.
