Hi All,



I am sure, this question must have been asked many times, I tried to search
archives as well, but still unable to find solution.

Below are logs. I am using Windows 2003 server 2 and using Postgres as a
metadata database for my ODI.



I got similar error last week as well. And today it has crashed twice.



After that I gave it a reboot to my machine, and its 3 hrs now and its
running fine. but not sure why it got down and will it go down again soon.

Can somebody advice what should I looked into?

Thankyou for including your logs without having to be asked. It's
usually helpful if you also provide your PostgreSQL version and
architecture (x86 or x64) - but in this case I don't think it matters as
it seems to be a Windows issue.
