The following bug has been logged online: Bug reference: 6164 Logged by: Kyle Fox Email address: kyle....@gmail.com PostgreSQL version: 9.0 Operating system: Mac OSX 10.6.8 Description: Flashing dialog Details:
I used the installer to install Postgres 9.0 on my Mac, and now every 10 seconds a dialog message flashes and immediately disappears, and STEALS FOCUS. My computer is completely unusable because of the installer. How do I fix this? I would like to uninstall postgres entirely. Here's the output from the Console.app: 11-08-15 9:24:04 PM Firewall[63] postgres is listening from 0.0.0.0:5432 proto=6 11-08-15 9:24:04 PM com.edb.launchd.postgresql-8.4[426] 2011-08-15 21:24:04 MDT FATAL: could not create shared memory segment: Cannot allocate memory 11-08-15 9:24:04 PM com.edb.launchd.postgresql-8.4[426] 2011-08-15 21:24:04 MDT DETAIL: Failed system call was shmget(key=5432001, size=32587776, 03600). 11-08-15 9:24:04 PM com.edb.launchd.postgresql-8.4[426] 2011-08-15 21:24:04 MDT HINT: This error usually means that PostgreSQL's request for a shared memory segment exceeded available memory or swap space.
