hey, thanks for your reply ok i tried to create a STC, but i'm don't really know ipc and shared mem.. anyway i traced down the part, which cause trouble (init code, called before the fork occours) if ((shmid = shmget(IPC_PRIVATE, allocationSize, IPC_CREAT | 0777)) < 0) FATAL("problems shmget'ing\n"); //if ((shmid = shmget(IPC_PRIVATE, allocationSize, IPC_CREAT | 0600)) < 0) FATAL("problems shmget'ing\n"); if (!(playerData_pd = shmat(shmid, NULL, 0))) FATAL("problems shmat'ing\n"); if (shmctl(shmid, IPC_RMID, NULL) < 0) FATAL("problems shmctl'ing\n"); when i comment out if (shmctl(shmid, IPC_RMID, NULL) < 0) FATAL("problems shmctl'ing\n"); mpd works like a charm. IPC_RMID is used to mark the segment as destroyed. It will actually be destroyed after the last detach. (I.e., when the shm_nattch member of the associated structure shmid_ds is zero.) The user must be the owner, creator, or the super-user. can someone explain me, what i just did? I also tried to change the shmget rights from 0600 to 0777. thanks in advance michu -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
