------------------------------------------------
postgresql was running fine but I wanted to increase the maxbackends value.
I reconfigure with "./configure --with-maxbackends=64", then "make" and
replace previous version of postgres program (/usr/local/pgsql/bin/postgres) .
When I launch postmaster (link to postgres), I get the following error
message :
IpcMemoryCreate: shmget failed (Param�tre invalide) key=5432001, size=2048000, p
ermission=600
This type of error is usually caused by an improper
shared memory or System V IPC semaphore configuration.
For more information, see the FAQ and platform-specific
FAQ's in the source directory pgsql/doc or on our
web site at http://www.postgresql.org.
FATAL 1: ShmemCreate: cannot create region
In doc/FAQ_Linux, I can read :
3.5) Why do I get an error like:
IpcMemoryCreate: memKey=155356396 , size=760632 ,
permission=384IpcMemoryCreate: shmget(..., create, ...)
failed: Invalid argument
You haven't build IPC support into your Linux kernel. You
will have to rebuild the kernel and switch on this option.
But my linux kernel was compiled with IPC support, here is an extract of
/usr/src/linux/.config
[...]
CONFIG_SYSVIPC=y
[...]
What did I make wrong ?
