Re: installation on solaris (help).

Yeah, easy fix...

You must edit the '/etc/system' file and add/adjust the shared memory settings. For example, mine looks like this: * To set a variable named 'debug' in the module named 'test_module' * * set test_module:debug = 0x13

set shmsys:shminfo_shmmax=32000000
set shmsys:shminfo_shmmin=1
set shmsys:shminfo_shmmni=100
set shmsys:shminfo_shmseg=10
set semsys:seminfo_semmns=200
set semsys:seminfo_semmni=70

Note: After adding/adjusting these parameters, you need to bounce (reboot) the server.
