You recently reported a bug where blanche reported:
Ingres system error occurred
This is a known problem that has been around for some time. It only
happens when something else has locked much of the database, such as
the nightly updates. It happens that we were running a consistency
check on the database yesterday afternoon at the time you got that
error, although usually such things are only done late at night.
We know that this error message is not very good, and plan on replacing
it with something more informative. If you run into this problem again,
just wait five minutes and try again, and everything will likely work.
The following error you got is a symptom of a problem that has only
happened a couple of times in the last year. You're just very lucky to
run into both these problems in a row. So thank you for reporting your
problems, as they could have been indications of real problems, although
in this case we were already aware of these and are working to make
moira more reliable.
