hello, i am just trying to get a postgres database to run on my debian-slink system... i did just recompile a kernel, made the latest debian updates and when following the sections of the install manual i get: erm1:~$ uname -a Linux erm1 2.2.0-pre6 #1 Wed Jan 13 15:35:06 CET 1999 i686 unknown erm1:~$ postmaster -i IpcMemoryCreate: memKey=5432010 , size=24588 , permission=448IpcMemoryCreate: shmget(..., create, ...) failed: Identifier removed This type of error is usually caused by improper shared memory or System V IPC semaphore configuration. See the FAQ for more detailed information IpcMemoryIdGet: memKey=5432010 , size=24588 , permission=0IpcMemoryIdGet: shmget() failed: Identifier removed This type of error is usually caused by impropershared memory or System V IPC semaphore configuration. See the FAQ for more detailed information IpcMemoryAttach: shmat() failed: Invalid argument This type of error is usually caused by improper shared memory or System V IPC semaphore configuration. See the FAQ for more detailed information FATAL 1: AttachSLockMemory: could not attach segment erm1:~$ cat /usr/src/linux/.config |grep IPC CONFIG_SYSVIPC=y
as far as i can tell (didn't find any version switch on the postgres components) it is postgresSQL 6.3 now i looked into the FAQ and on the problem that the postmaster reports it tells, that IPC-stuff is missing in the kernel... now i explicitely payed attention to that (as you can see from the kernel config file exerpt above) so i am a bit clueless about what to try now... please make a CC to me directly if responding, we have here a very short newsfeed, and i am not (yet) subscribed to debian-user.... -- ciao bboett ============================================================== acount at earthling net http://erm6.u-strasbg.fr/~bboett =============================================================== Unsolicited commercial email is NOT welcome at this email address To contact me replace acount by bboett in above addresses
