I've set shared memory to 512Mb

kernel.shmall = 536870912
kernel.shmmax = 536870912

but I'm still getting:

11/13/2013 10:38:18.089596 zmtrigger[12506].ERR [Can't get shared memory id '7a6d0002', 2: No such file or directory]

Those are all the monitor defined. Trying to trigger one gives:
11/13/2013 10:43:48.756394 zmtrigger[12506].WAR [Can't find monitor '8' for message '8|on+10|255']

Am I missing something complete different here?

ZM_VERSION=1.26.4

Try larger, like 4GB or whatever your amount of memory is.

Remember there may be other programs using shm, so if zm needs 512MB, then shmall needs to be larger.

What dist are you on? We have a bug report/patch for centos 6 that may be related here.

Was this compiled with cmake?
