Firebird 2.5 and SysV Semaphores

2011-05-18 Thread Leonardo M . Ramé
Hi, I have a problem with Firebird 2.5, and posted the issue in their mailing list. They suggested that I have to recompile the kernel to allow more SysV semaphores. Do you recommend this? Here's a copy of my mail: > I recently installed Firebird 2.5 on a FreeBSD, it was running ok

sshit runs out of semaphores

2008-12-02 Thread DA Forsyth
/sshit line 322 Every time it gets stopped by CTRL-C it leaves the shared memory behind, allocated. I am going to reboot later and double the number of semaphores (in loader.conf). I am running hobbit which uses 8, leaving only 2 free. This may solve this issue, but I'd appreciate any idea

I'm trying to test a python extension (POSH) that uses semaphores. When testing I get a run time error that indicates it requires too many semaphores. Is it possible to adjust the allowed number of semaphores without rebuilding the kernel? What are the costs of having semaphores ie are
