Hi,


I tried installed PostgreSql using CygWin in Windows 2000.
I got the following error when I tried to run initdb.



creating configuration files... ok
Quote:
creating template1 database in /usr/share/postgresql/data/bas
d not create shared memory segment: Function not implemented
DETAIL: Failed system call was shmget(key=1, size=1081344, 0

initdb: failed
Could you help me to solve this problem?

Thanks in advance,

Denise & Glenda

Hi Denise,

I ran into this problem for quite a while until I read the README that
came with the PostgreSQL installation (under /usr/share/doc, I think).

I highly recommend referring to this document. There could be a couple
causes of your error, and since cygwin handles the Sysv IPC calls
differently than UNIX, the process, while straight-forward, is not
intuitive if you have never done it.

Best Wishes,
Chris Travers
