FATAL 1: ShmemCreate: cannot create region

----------------------------------------------------------------------

---------------------------------------------------------------------

I don't know a solution but I can say that I use successfully postgresql
since the 6.3, and I wanted to upgrade my 6.4.2 which worked very fine to
the 6.5.2 and I'd better have stayed in bed this morning...

I havent yet tried to reduce the default shared memory usage with the -B
option. do you think this could significantly reduce the speed of the
database engine ?

thanks.

Good thing you are late. Lamar found problems with pgaccess and perl
that I have since fixed.

Good thing you are late. Lamar found problems with pgaccess and perl
that I have since fixed.

Just to be complete, consider the pgaccess stuff and the perl issue
resolved completely. REL6_5_PATCHES builds flawlessly here (on both
RedHat 6.x and RedHat 5.2), passes regression (except float8, geometry,
and misc -- all of which are known failures under Linux 2.xx with
glibc2.x), pgaccess runs, and the perl test script passes.

You have a 'Go', Houston.....
