"No response from the backend" error while connecting to postgres db

Hi All

I am getting error “No response from the backend” while connecting to my postgres database.

pg_log file logs the below messages :

GMT FATAL:  semop(id=1310723) failed: Invalid argument

GMT FATAL:  semop(id=1310723) failed: Invalid argument

GMT FATAL:  semctl(1310723, 7, SETVAL, 0) failed: Invalid argument

GMT FATAL:  semctl(1310723, 12, SETVAL, 0) failed: Invalid argument

GMT LOG:  server process (PID 10776) exited with exit code 1

GMT LOG:  terminating any other active server processes

GMT WARNING:  terminating connection because of crash of another server process

GMT DETAIL:  The postmaster has commanded this server process to roll back the current transaction and exit, because another server proc

ess exited abnormally and possibly corrupted shared memory.

GMT HINT:  In a moment you should be able to reconnect to the database and repeat your command.

The above message is printed a number of times and after that it prints

GMT LOG:  all server processes terminated; reinitializing

GMT FATAL:  the database system is starting up

GMT LOG:  database system is ready

The postgresql log file doesn’t print anything about restarting postgres. I couldn’t get any information from other logs regarding which process was killed, who killed it and why.

Please help.

Thanks…
