<P><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Tahoma">I'm having memory problems when launching Hobbit on Solaris 9. </FONT>
</P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Tahoma">Initially the error in /var/log/hobbit/hobbitlaunch.log is "Could not attach shm Too many open files", and then later becomes "Could not attach shm Permission denied". If I then close all hobbit processes and look at /usr/bin/ipcs I see six shared-memory listings and six semaphore listings. I can clean these out with ipcrm, but then when I restart hobbit the same set of symptoms recur. I have appended some logs below, generated with the hobbitlaunch.cfg --debug switch on.</FONT></P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Tahoma">No processes other than hobbitlaunch ever start up, and no log files other than hobbitlaunch.log appear. There are plenty of resources available on the Hobbit server (disk, RAM, swap). </FONT></P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Tahoma">Thanks in advance for your consideration,</FONT>
