Segmentation fault while running 'reorder_chunk'

TimescaleDB and PostgreSQL

Hi!
I’m trying to use 'reorder_chunk" but five or ten minutes later in log file I get this:
[76645] LOG: reordering chunk test_chunks.my_2046_chunk
[73276] LOG: background worker “Reorder Background Job” (PID 76645) was terminated by signal 11: Segmentation fault
[73276] LOG: terminating any other active server processes
[75279] WARNING: terminating connection because of crash of another server processes

How can I solve this problem ?

Version of TimescaleDB is 1.7.1, OS - Red Hat Enterprice, Linux 3.10.0-1127.

Hi @Wilgo, I see Timescale version 1.7 is relatively old. Any chance to update to 2.x versions?

Probably it’s already solved in the latest versions as I haven’t seen this before.

@jonatasdp Is it dangerous to update from 1.7 to the latest version ? Do I have any chance of losing my data or configuration files ?

Maybe it’s easier to delete the chunk and write it again ?
