Hi,
My postgreSQL 8.2.4 is installed on
Windows server 2003 Enterprise Edition.
Windows Server configuration:
RAM 4GB
HDD 50 GB
Processor: Pentium 4 CPU 3.20
GHz
When the shared_buffers = 2048 MB is set
in the Postgresql.conf file, while starting the service, I got the error
Could not open process token "error
code-5".
Please help me out.
Thanks & Regards,
Sima

Without more information its hard to say -- you might provide some information
about what operating system and what version of postgreSQL.
I have some vague memories of "error code 5" being sometimes a
message that indicates that there are insufficient file handles available. Not
sure if this applies in your case, so if you coulkd provide more context a more
helpful response might be found from some one on this list.
On a side note this, cross-posting is usually not considered good form; the
admin list is probably the most suitable for this one. And the list owner is
almost never the right address since that's an alias for isssues about the list
itself, such as signing up, etc.
