Signal 11 is a segmentation fault on Unix systems; this means that the
server process has tried to write to an invalid memory address. It
could be caused by an error in the postgres program itself, or in Java,
or possibly by a hardware fault in your machine's memory.

You need to give many more details: which operating system, which
version of PostgreSQL; more details of the command being run - is this
under JBDC? If possible, get a backtrace of the error from the server.

Either a bug or a hardware problem. You haven't given nearly enough
details to let anyone figure out which, however. If you think it might
be a Postgres bug, please see the bug reporting guidelines here:

thanks everybody, fortunately i've resolved everything.
The problem was a mistake in pointer allocation in one of the
C-Triggers i've developed.
I've detected the fault and everything is ok now.
Thanks again for the attention.
