I have added a file: /etc/sysctl.d/90-postgres.conf
in which I have changed the kernel settings for shmmax to make postgres run correctly. Isn't this why this folder was created, to make individual packages change the configurations according to their needs? I do not get exactly why this would not affect all postgres users? Is the configuration of postgres dynamically created during install, based on the available memory in the system? Because if I understand correctly it is a combination of parameters in the postgres config file which sum up to a required shared memory usage. Anyway, I solved it by manually creating the above mentioned file. -- pgsql fails to start due to shared buffer setting greater than kernel allows https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/264336 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
