I have found that the job IS running, just not outputting to the logs.

I do a ps -ef and there it is vacuuming the database.

It throws and error when it starts ( pq_flush: send() failed: Broken pipe ) and when it finishes (LOG: pq_recvbuf: unexpected EOF on client connection)

Does that give anyone any ideas what could be wrong?

My current command is
0 23 * * * psql weblink -U postgres -c "vacuum full verbose;"

TIA for any ideas
Chad
