Hello,

I have found this problem running Postgre 7.0.2. I am running pg as DB
server
on one internet portal, so I need to solve this problem really fast. I
intend to find
problem in Linux kernel (because of reported problems with VMM allocating
shared
memory), but I would like to ask here, if some has some similar experience
and maybe some solution...

This messages (still repeating) I received from backend after trying to
restart postmaster... :
DEBUG: Data Base System is starting up at Wed Oct 4 18:30:42 2000
