I am in a similar position to the person below. I am trying to install
Postgres 6.5beta3 on a Solaris 7 machine (64-bit libraries installed) using
egcs-1.1.2 and receive the following when trying to run the 'postmaster -i'
command:
IpcMemoryCreate: shmget failed (Invalid argument) key=5432001,
size=1073152, permission=600
FATAL 1: ShmemCreate: cannot create region
Does anyone have some pointers on how to fix this? Or any idea what the
problem is? Thanks in advance,
Tony
