Re: Shared Memory Problem

Hi Curt,

These are my open shared memories in the server output of ipcs command.

------ Shared Memory Segments --------
key        shmid      owner      perms      bytes      nattch     status
0x00000000 18645001   gOLeM     600        393216     2          dest
0x0000162e 18808842   root      666        30         1

The last one the the sharedmem the php will be using. the key is 5678
and as you said I
have modified my code to

$shm_id = shmop_open(intval($shm_key), "a",666,0) or die("FATAL
ERROR:: $php_errormsg");

U obtain the shm_key from a file. The key I am using is 5678 and it is
getting that value from the file. I even hardcoded the value, but the
error is not getting solved.

Is this a proble with any of the server configs? Coz we have
downloaded an example C file and this is also not working with the
PHP. Where as if the server and client both written in C are able to
communicate using the shared memory. Any clue any one??

Ok...just a crazy query...does it have anything to do with
Notice: import_request_variables(): No prefix specified - possible
security hazard in

which occurs due to register_globals set to Off??
