Thread: increasing of the shared memory does not solve the problem of "OUT of shared memory"
increasing of the shared memory does not solve the problem of "OUT of shared memory"

Hello!
I increased significantly the number of shared buffers from 3000 to 100 000 (80Mb)
Also I increased the max_locks_per_transaction from 64 to 10 000.
I still receive the same error form Postgres: org.postgresql.util.PSQLException: ERROR: out of shared memory
Is this message appropriate to the real cause of the problem or the reason of the failure is actually other than what is displayed in this message?
With best regards,
Sorin N. Ciolofan

Did you remember to restart the postmaster after doing that? (pg_ctl
reload isn't good enough, you need an actual restart to enlarge shared
memory.) You can confirm whether it's really taken effect with
"show max_locks_per_transaction".
