The error has to be phrased to cover the case where you hit it after initdb. It would be quite unhelpful to *not* mention those settings. However, it's odd that you got this variant of the HINT and not the one that suggests increasing SHMMAX. Looking at the code, that means that shmget returned ENOMEM, not EINVAL, which surprises me. What did you have your kernel settings at? Could we see the output of sysctl -a | grep sysv regards, tom lane -- Sent via pgsql-general mailing list (pgsql-general@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-general
