Thread: certainly not a banner day

certainly not a banner day

From

Date:
Decided to start from scratch.  Did a gmake distclean and a fresh cvsup.
Reinstalled and did an initdb.  Starting the postmaster gives me this:

IpcMemoryCreate: shmget failed (Invalid argument) key=5432001, size=894392,
permission=600
FATAL 1:  ShmemCreate: cannot create region

Yes the kernel is built with the SYSV stuff.  FreeBSD 2.2.8-RELEASE.

Bingo!  That showed me that there were two keys sitting there (forgot all
about that command).  I ipcsrm'd both and postmaster started.

Thanks!
