| The following bug has been logged online: Bug reference: 3707 Logged by: Rene Gollent Email address: rgollent@asteriasgi.com PostgreSQL version: 8.1.4 Operating system: Linux (Gentoo) Description: failure cases in reindex don't always report enough information to diagnose the issue Details: If you issue a REINDEX DATABASE, which then fails due to db corruption (i.e. could not create index due to duplicate values), the resulting error message only specifies: ERROR: could not create unique index DETAIL: Table contains duplicated values. without telling you what table actually triggered the error. It *can* be tracked down by manually looking up the oid of the last table that was successfully indexed and manually iterating from there, but it'd be nice to know directly. ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 1: if posting/reading through Usenet, please send an appropriate subscribe-nomail command to majordomo@postgresql.org so that your message can get through to the mailing list cleanly |

Hmm. It would be fairly easy to mention the index name here (less so to mention the table name, but I think you'd really need to know which index is the problem, anyway). ISTR that when this error message was written the index *wasn't* known at the place where the message was being emitted, but we do have it now ... regards, tom lane ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 1: if posting/reading through Usenet, please send an appropriate subscribe-nomail command to majordomo@postgresql.org so that your message can get through to the mailing list cleanly |
