I forward it to the modperl list, hopefully somebody there know more about Semaphores...

I'm a newbie trying to get Apache::Session to work (through HTML::Embperl). This is part of my startup.pl: %%%%% use constant DB_INFO => 'DBI:Pg:dbname=template1'; BEGIN { $ENV{EMBPERL_SESSION_CLASSES} = 'DBIStore SysVSemaphoreLocker'; $ENV{EMBPERL_SESSION_ARGS} = 'Datasource=' . DB_INFO; } %%%%% When I try to access a simple HTML::Embperl using %mdat or %udat, I get the following error: [5596]ERR: 24: Line 10: Error in Perl code: No space left on device at /usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.005/Apache/Session/SysVSemaphoreLocker.pm line 63. The output of 'ipcs -as' is as follows: Semaphores: T ID KEY MODE OWNER GROUP CREATOR CGROUP NSEMS OTIME CTIME s 65536 5432014 --rw------- postgres postgres postgres postgres 16no-entry 5:49:28 s 65537 5432015 --rw------- postgres postgres postgres postgres 16no-entry 5:49:28 Apache is running as user 'nobody', group 'nobody'. A similar thread was mentioned before on the modperl list (http://forum.swarthmore.edu/epigone/modperl/spaygelthang/200003142101.NAA14 [EMAIL PROTECTED]), but no one responded. That poster was trying to use Apache::Session with SysVSemaphoreLocker and OpenBSD. What am I doing wrong? Do I need to allow Apache::Session to create semaphores? How would I do that?
