I'm running Cygwin 1.3.22.1 on Windows 2003. I've installed ipc-daemon as a service and I'm trying to get postmaster started.
I've created a postgres account, logged on under that account and run initdb -D /usr/share/postgresql/data to create the DB. postmaster is installed like this "$ cygrunsrv --install postmaster --path /usr/bin/postmaster --args "-D /usr/share/postgresql/data -i -B 16 -N 8" --dep ipc-daemon --termsig INT --user postgres --shutdown #" ipc-daemon starts OK (for a while It wouldn't but logging off and back on seemed to fix that problem), but postmaster won't start. I'm getting this in 'postmster.log' "IpcMemoryCreate: shmget(key=5432001, size=1499136, 03600) failed: Not enough core" followed by the rest of the message. I've tried reducing buffer sizes to 16 (the minimum) and the max connections to 8 (as can be seen above) and I'm still getting the problem. I suspect it's a permissions problem (most of these seem to be:) ) Do I need to do anything special to the postgres user, or allow it access to any particular directory? Any help would be much appreciated.
