I thought I would try to make 7.4beta2 on my os X machine. I used the default ./configure then make. make says everything is ok to install so I tried a make check.. this is my error log.
gcc is set for 3.1 os X 10.2.6. I don't know if this is just a 'make check' problem or if what I have is NFG. Ted Running in noclean mode. Mistakes will not be cleaned up.

FATAL: could not create shared memory segment: Invalid argument DETAIL: Failed syscall was shmget(key=1, size=10444800, 03600). HINT: This error usually means that PostgreSQL's request for a shared memory segment exceeded your kernel's SHMMAX parameter. You can either reduce the request size or reconfigure the kernel with larger SHMMAX. To reduce the request size (currently 10444800 bytes), reduce PostgreSQL's shared_buffers parameter (currently 1000) and/or its max_connections parameter (currently 100). If the request size is already small, it's possible that it is less than your kernel's SHMMIN parameter, in which case raising the request size or reconfiguring SHMMIN is called for. The PostgreSQL documentation contains more information about shared memory configuration. initdb: failed initdb: data directory "/Users/postgres/postgres/postgresql-7.4beta2/src/test/regress/./tmp_check/data" not removed at user's request __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
