Hi,

I am trying to do a sem_get on a semaphore that has already been created by
a c program. Instead of getting back the semaphore id,  I get:

Warning: semget() failed for key 0x576a: Invalid argument in
/usr/local/apache/htdocs/bioace/testshmop.php on line 5

I can see the semaphores by using "ipcs" and they appear to be there with
good permissions, etc.

If I call sem_get with a new id everything seems to work fine - the problem
is only if I try to interact with a semaphore created by another program.

Can sem_get not talk to semaphores in the outside world?

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Rick
