Thread: Problem with initdb on new machine - NON-HTML post (sorry)
installed cygipc version 1.11-1 and start the ipc-daemon, but I still get
the message:
IpcSemaphoreCreate: semget(key=1, num=17, 03600) failed: Function not
implemented
I verified the ipc-daemon was running with ps.

What am I doing wrong?

For starters, you did not install the latest version of cygipc (i.e., 1.13-2).

It must have been the change to cygipc 1.13-2 because that is the only thing that I changed. I could have been something else due to my limited knowledge of Cygwin and PostgreSQL. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Jason Tishler" <jason@tishler.net> To: "Mark Minnie" <postgresql@minniebyte.com> Cc: <pgsql-cygwin@postgresql.org> Sent: Sunday, December 01, 2002 6:22 PM Subject: Re: [CYGWIN] Problem with initdb on new machine - NON-HTML post (sorry) > Mark, > > On Fri, Nov 29, 2002 at 10:21:31PM -0800, Mark Minnie wrote: > > Thanks.

I had to update cygipc to get postgresql 7.2.3-2 to work on my WinNT
system. Here's the story.
I recently upgraded my Cygwin installation picking up
postgresql-7.2.3-2 in the process, replacing version 7.2.3-1. When I
tried to start the postmaster service again it would fail leaving this
message in /var/log/postmaster.log:
IpcMemoryCreate: shmget(key=5432001, size=1441792, 03600) failed:
Function not implemented
Removing the MultiFile* and cygipc* files in /tmp did not help.
However, installing cygipc 1.13-2 fixed the problem and the postmaster
service is running fine again. I had been running version 1.09-2 of
cygipc.
