Hi!!

zms[10640]: ERR [Can't shmget, probably not enough shared memory space free: Invalid argument]

I need some help. Thanks!!

this is what i get now.....

shmall = 134217728
shmmax = 134217728

ZM_SHM_KEY = 0x7a6d2001
---------------------------------------------------
this is the response to ipcs -m command

------ Shared Memory Segments --------
key shmid owner perms bytes nattch status

0x7cb39a49 229380 jrocha 600 1 0
0x18bd729a 262149 jrocha 600 1 0

and the new error msg is :
zms[9037]: ERR [Can't shmget, probably not enough shared memory space free: Permission denied]

is there a way to modify shared memory segments to create the zm key manually ?

is there a way to modify shared memory segments to create the zm key manually ?

It's in the options menu under the system tab.

as yo can see, i did it. i tried to modify it manually using the web console. i restart zm but i can't see the shared memory segmet key that belongs to zm ZM_SHM_KEY = 0x7a6d2001 when running command ipcs -m.

Thanks for your patience and your help.
