I forgot to include the specific error message related to the archival
process not finding the file.

Postgres, but received these messages. Postgres would not start.

Since this is development I used "pg_resetxlog -f
/usr/local/pgsql/data". I then tried to start Postgres, but received
the same messages as above. I removed the backup in progress file as
stated in the message. Postgres was able to start after that, but now
it keeps trying to archive log files that don't exist.

How can I tell postgres to move to the point in time where log file
truncation occurred where the log files now start?
