The following bug has been logged online: Bug reference: 2406 Logged by: Paul van der Zwan Email address: [EMAIL PROTECTED] PostgreSQL version: 8.1.3 Operating system: Solaris Description: Not all systems support SHM_SHARE_MMU Details:
Only systems with large pagesizes support ISM, so always defining #define PG_SHMAT_FLAGS SHM_SHARE_MMU in src/backend/port/sysv_shmem.c will cause all calls to shmat to fail with EINVAL on systems that do not support large pages. The following may be a better check: #if def SHM_SHARE_MMU #define PG_SHMAT_FLAGS ((getpagesizes(0,NULL)>1)?SHM_SHARE_MMU:0) #else #define PG_SHMAT_FLAGS 0 #endif This problem manifested itself on a VIA Mini ITX system and Solaris Nevada ( build 36) Paul van der Zwan ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 4: Have you searched our list archives? http://archives.postgresql.org
