Hi all,
this morning I perform an upgrade 7.4.2 -> 7.4.5 and
after 6 months without errors this night a backend
crashed:

ERROR: invalid string enlargement request size 1476395004
DEBUG: AbortCurrentTransaction
WARNING: AbortTransaction and not in in-progress state
ERROR: could not send data to client: Broken pipe
PANIC: error during error recovery, giving up
DEBUG: child process (PID 32247) was terminated by signal 6
LOG: server process (PID 32247) was terminated by signal 6
LOG: terminating any other active server processes

do you have any idea on what could be the reason ?

Regards
Gaetano Mendola
