Have a FreeBSD 4.2 box... have created two Virtual machines with the jail process. Apache and PHp configure and execute fine, but am having some configuration and execution problems with pgsql... not sure if I am missing something or if pgsql just cannot deal with being in the jail and sharing the sysv memory Attempting to manually start the postmaster produces the following: %postmaster -i IpcMemoryCreate: shmget failed (Function not implemented) key=5432010, size=144, permission=700 This type of error is usually caused by an improper shared memory or System V IPC semaphore configuration. For more information, see the FAQ and platform-specific FAQ's in the source directory pgsql/doc or on our web site at http://www.postgresql.org. IpcMemoryIdGet: shmget failed (Function not implemented) key=5432010, size=144, permission=0 IpcMemoryAttach: shmat failed (Function not implemented) id=-2 FATAL 1: AttachSLockMemory: could not attach segment % Have modified the sysctl.conf file to allow usage of sysv memory, but as it is already shared from the host machine, this may be causing pgsql to barf on it. Searching for jail faq's and posts regarding this matter produces some close, but not helpful posts regarding chroot'ed environments. Any insights, requests for details, and assistance are appreciated. Dave
