Why do I get "No space left on device: Failed to create global mutex" ? Because mod_python has get all the available semaphores of your os. To avoid this error on GNU/Linux do #ipcs (to see all locked semaphores) #for i in `ipcs | grep "www-data" | awk '{print $2}'`; do ipcrm -s $i; done www-data is the user which runs apache[12] (in Debian) In this way you release all resources locked by apache[12] If you want to increase the number of available semaphores append kernel.sem = 512 32000 100 512 to your /etc/sysctl.conf and do #sysctl -p ------------------------------ Some of the content has benne derived from http://www.modpython.org/pipermail/mod_python/2005-April/017858.html You can change anything you want of course :) Thank you for the great work (even if configuring mod_python in debian is painfully... )
