Don't know if this is too late, but check your SEMMNS setting in = /etc/system, it needs to be at least the sum of all your processes.

              When I was creating a database on Solaris 2.6 and Oracle = version is 8.1.5 .=20

              I faced the following problem. When I saw the Cause & = Action .

          27146, 0000, "post/wait initialization failed"
  // *Cause: OS system call failed
  // *Action: check errno and contact Oracle Support=20
