Hi,

I've installed 8.0.0-rc1 (I have to use this version) on a WinXP
(Hungarian) machine, and when the service starts I get following in
the log:

2005-01-21 10:32:34 FATAL: could not attach to proper memory at fixed address: shmget(key=5432001, addr=00F80000) failed: Invalid argument
2005-01-21 10:32:35 FATAL: could not attach to proper memory at fixed address: shmget(key=5432001, addr=00F80000) failed: Invalid argument
2005-01-21 10:32:35 LOG: background writer process (PID 2732) exited with exit code 0
2005-01-21 10:32:35 LOG: terminating any other active server processes
2005-01-21 10:32:35 LOG: all server processes terminated; reinitializing

Someone mentioned that maybe service pack 2 can couse this but an
other XP+sp2 runs this version of postgresql well. Do you have any
experience with this?

Daniel
