FATAL: could not create shared memory segment: Cannot
allocate memory
DETAIL: Failed system call was shmget(key=1,
size=1081344, 03600).
HINT: This error usually means that PostgreSQL's
request for a shared memory segment exceeded available
memory or swap space. To reduce the request size
(currently 1081344 bytes), reduce PostgreSQL's
shared_buffers parameter (currently 50) and/or its
max_connections parameter (currently 10).
The PostgreSQL documentation contains more
information about shared memory configuration.
