Thread: 6.4.2 install on sparc solaris 2.6
Hi! I'm trying to install pg6.4.2 on Sparc Soalris 2.6 with no success. (6.4.2 because python interface to LO doesn't work in 6.5). 6.4.2 compliles fine [with gcc version egcs-2.91.66 19990314 (egcs-1.1.2 release)]. initdb runs ok, but pstmaster -i : $postmaster -i IpcMemoryCreate: shmget failed (Invalid argument) key=5432010, size=24588, permission=700 IpcMemoryIdGet: shmget failed (Invalid argument) key=5432010, size=24588, permission=0 IpcMemoryAttach: shmat failed (Invalid argument) id=-2 FATAL 1: AttachSLockMemory: could not attach segment any ideas?

So, either there is not enough shared memory in your kernel, or it's something to do with the compiler - we used the commercial Sun c compiler. Herouth -- Herouth Maoz, Internet developer.

I complile it with gcc version 2.7.2.3. But I have same error messages when I try postgres 6.5. I think there is not enough memory, not compiler problem. I'm tring to find the reason of these messages now :) Grigory Kljuchnikov, Institute for System Programming Russian Academy of Sciences, 109004, Moscow, Russia, B.Kommunistitcheskay, 25, phone(work): +7-095-9125659 fax: +7-095-9121524 e-mail: <grn@ispras.ru>
Put this at the bottom of /etc/system and then reboot: set semsys:seminfo_semmap=64 set semsys:seminfo_semmni=4096 set semsys:seminfo_semmns=4096 set semsys:seminfo_semmnu=4096 set semsys:seminfo_semume=64 set semsys:seminfo_semmsl=100 set shmsys:shminfo_shmmax=268435456 set shmsys:shminfo_shmmin=100 set shmsys:shminfo_shmmni=100 set shmsys:shminfo_shmseg=100 This should create the shared memory segments you need to run with the -B option. -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Aaron Holtz ComNet Inc.

Hi!
I resolved this problem. I have PostgreSQL 6.5.0 on sparc-sun-solaris2.6,
compiled by gcc 2.7.2.3. When I started postmaster -i, I had same error
messages.
You need to tune system parameter (shmsys) of kernel in /etc/system.
I add into /etc/system:
set shmsys:shminfo_shmmax=268435456
set shmsys:shminfo_shmmin=10
set shmsys:shminfo_shmmni=200
set shmsys:shminfo_shmseg=200
set semsys:seminfo_semmap=250
set semsys:seminfo_semmni=500
set semsys:seminfo_semmns=500
set semsys:seminfo_semmsl=500
set semsys:seminfo_semmnu=500
set semsys:seminfo_semume=100
then
# reboot -- -r
and
% sysdef
...
*
* IPC Shared Memory
*
268435456 max shared memory segment size (SHMMAX)
10 min shared memory segment size (SHMMIN)
200 shared memory identifiers (SHMMNI)
200 max attached shm segments per process (SHMSEG)
*
...
Now I start postmaster -i and it run ok.
