Please forgive me if this is an idiotic question.
My system administrator is gone and I can not get
postmaster to run and I do not understand
this error that I am getting. HELP!
(I am running on a SPARC2)
Error:
snake% postmaster&
[1] 566
snake% IpcMemoryAttach: shmat() failed: Permission denied
The machine was recently rebooted, could that be the problem?
Thanks in advance!!!
Chris

most of the time, this means that someone started postmaster
as one user, then did
kill -9
of the postmaster (leaving shared memory segments lying around),
then tried to start postmaster as a different user.
running ipcclean as the first user usually clears this up.
