Hello Postgres Admins,
I am having a bit of trouble setting postgres memory parameters on a
windows machine. I figured out the parameters based on postgres
documentation as well as the whack a mole slide deck, but the postgres
process will not start. Event log keeps indicating the following reason
for the postgres process : *FATAL: could not create shared memory segment*
I can not find any documentation specific to windows…
You are not mentioning which PG version you are running. But with 8.4.1 a bug that lead to "could not reattach to shared memory" errors was fixed. I don't know if this is the same what you are seeing.
