Hi, I was installing perl 5.8 and it would fails. Lost the error message, sorry. However, running a google search on the error message gave only one result suggesting that my system was running out of semaphores. So, `ipcs` showed that postgresql was using them and so stopping this db allowed perl to be installed.
Now I can run both perl5.8 and postgresql, but, how do I know whether my system is low on semaphores, and if so, how do I increase it ? Here are some outputes: uname -a: FreeBSD 4.8-STABLE ipcs : [EMAIL PROTECTED] [/home/pars/perl] $ ipcs Message Queues: T ID KEY MODE OWNER GROUP Shared Memory: T ID KEY MODE OWNER GROUP m 65536 5432001 --rw------- pgsql pgsql Semaphores: T ID KEY MODE OWNER GROUP s 131072 5432001 --rw------- pgsql pgsql s 131073 5432002 --rw------- pgsql pgsql s 131074 5432003 --rw------- pgsql pgsql Thanks. _______________________________________________ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
