Hello listers,

I am getting the following error when I attempt to CLUSTER on a table:

mavmail=# cluster mailer_queue;

ERROR: could not create relation "pg_temp_752992924": File exists

The 752992924 is the oid of one of the indexes of this table (not the
clustering index)

This apparently is the result of a previous cluster operation that had not
cleaned up properly.

Where can I find this file? There are several tables that have this
problem. Do I need to

Do a database REINDEX or some other type of system maintenance?

Again we are running 7.4.5. 8.2.5 scheduled for implementation later this
month or early March.
