PostgreSQL version: 11.0
Operating system: Windows Server 2008 R2
Description:

On large tables I get an error on:

CREATE INDEX nx_tablename ON tablename USING btree (col1); col1 being an
integer
and
ALTER TABLE ONLY tablename ADD CONSTRAINT pk_tablename PRIMARY KEY (col1,
col2); col1 and col2 both integer

First noticed that with pg_restore (from a pg_dump from PG10)
pg_restore: [archiver (db)] Error while PROCESSING TOC:
pg_restore: [archiver (db)] Error from TOC entry 14005; 1259 546886907 INDEX
nx_tablename postgres
pg_restore: [archiver (db)] could not execute query: ERROR: could not
determine
size of temporary file "0"
Command was: CREATE INDEX nx_tablename ON tablename USING btree
(col1);

After the restore finished (with that error) I tried running that same query
in pgadmin.
There I got:
********** Error **********
ERROR: could not determine size of temporary file "0"
SQL state: 58P01

table definition:

CREATE TABLE tablename
(
col1 bigint NOT NULL,
col2 bigint NOT NULL,
col3 bigint NOT NULL,
col4 bigint NOT NULL,
col5 bigint,
col6 integer NOT NULL,
)

I have several comparable tables (same columns). Errors occur for tables
with 386726424 or 556071229 records
for other smaller tables (largest has 163183465 records) there's no error
