I am trying to figure out why I get some weird entries in my postgresql log after I do a restart:

2010-05-14 11:30:25 EEST LOG:  database system was shut down at 2010-05-14 11:30:22 EEST
2010-05-14 11:30:25 EEST LOG:  autovacuum launcher started
2010-05-14 11:30:25 EEST LOG:  database system is ready to accept connections
2010-05-14 11:30:25 EEST LOG:  incomplete startup packet
2010-05-14 11:30:40 EEST WARNING:  there is already a transaction in progress
2010-05-14 11:30:40 EEST LOG:  could not receive data from client: Connection reset by peer
2010-05-14 11:30:40 EEST LOG:  unexpected EOF on client connection

First, there's the 2010-05-14 11:30:25 EEST LOG: incomplete startup packet which bugs me. Anyone has any idea why this happens?

And also, this one is very strange: 2010-05-14 11:30:40 EEST WARNING: there is already a transaction in progress ...
