Since your message says that the file is completely missing, someone
must have deleted the file. There is nothing you can do except restoring
from a backup.

Making sure postgres owns the files and the access rights are restricted
to rw------- prevents this.

Even a file system error won't lead to this situation, as typically the
file remains with length 0.
