After starting and stopping the apache server a few times we get the error message (in error_log) "semget: no space left on device" and the apache server won't start. The only solution has been to reboot the machine (not ideal). >How-To-Repeat: problem seems to be hardware/OS related as the same code runs fine on our dec alpha. Starting and stopping the apache server a few times seems to cause the problem. >Fix: sorry, no idea, semget is something to do with semaphores (according to the man pages) but I'm no unix guru. >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted: [In order for any reply to be added to the PR database, ] [you need to include <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> in the Cc line ] [and leave the subject line UNCHANGED.
