Repeatedly rewriting a mapped catalog table with VACUUM FULL or CLUSTER could cause logical decoding to fail with: ERROR, "could not map filenode \"%s\" to relation OID" To trigger the problem the rewritten catalog had to have live tuples with toasted columns. The problem was triggered as during catalog table rewrites the heap_insert() check that prevents logical decoding information to be emitted for system catalogs, failed to treat the new heap's toast table as a system catalog (because the new heap is not recognized as a catalog table via RelationIsLogicallyLogged()). The relmapper, in contrast to the normal catalog contents, does not contain historical information. After a single rewrite of a mapped table the new relation is known to the relmapper, but if the table is rewritten twice before logical decoding occurs, the relfilenode cannot be mapped to a relation anymore. Which then leads us to error out. This only happens for toast tables, because the main table contents aren't re-inserted with heap_insert(). The fix is simple, add a new heap_insert() flag that prevents logical decoding information from being emitted, and accept during decoding that there might not be tuple data for toast tables. Unfortunately that does not fix pre-existing logical decoding errors. Doing so would require not throwing an error when a filenode cannot be mapped to a relation during decoding, and that seems too likely to hide bugs. If it's crucial to fix decoding for an existing slot, temporarily changing the ERROR in ReorderBufferCommit() to a WARNING appears to be the best fix.

The PostgreSQL contrib tree --------------------------- This subtree contains porting tools, analysis utilities, and plug-in features that are not part of the core PostgreSQL system, mainly because they address a limited audience or are too experimental to be part of the main source tree. This does not preclude their usefulness. User documentation for each module appears in the main SGML documentation. When building from the source distribution, these modules are not built automatically, unless you build the "world" target. You can also build and install them all by running "make all" and "make install" in this directory; or to build and install just one selected module, do the same in that module's subdirectory. Some directories supply new user-defined functions, operators, or types. To make use of one of these modules, after you have installed the code you need to register the new SQL objects in the database system by executing a CREATE EXTENSION command. In a fresh database, you can simply do CREATE EXTENSION module_name; See the PostgreSQL documentation for more information about this procedure.
