When i delete exit(1), nothing has changed but when i commented out all the mutexes it works, counter is working well. That's great. :) that means shared memory is working well.
in terms of mutexes i need to create mutex in post config in handler 1. lock mutex 2. process global variable 3. unlcok mutex If i'm right what is the problem with that code, do you have any ideas or advices about these segmentation faults.
