Im trying to run SER on a very
simple Debian box and failing miserably!
Might be due to being a bit of a newbie
for a start.
Hardware: Intel Pentium MMX. 64 Mbytes of Ram.
2 GByte drive
Linux: Debian Woody. Successfully
installed, I got Apache and several
other apps working absolutely fine.
I did a dpkg -i of the
latest stable version of Debian distro
of SER ie
ser_0.8.12_i386.deb, sourced from iptel.org website. Should have started
but got the error message of Too much shared memory
demanded. I tried using
command to use less memory seems it uses 32 Meg as per
help from the ser
user mailing list, ie ser –m 16, and also in for 8 and 4 meg that
also failed had
same error message but with
different number.
I also found the following quote again on SER
user mailing list but I have
been unable to find out which version of Linux kernel Im using.
http://mail.iptel.org/pipermail/serusers/2004-February/005966.html
in
extract form
Desc: ser won't run on linux
kernels <2.4 (fails with EINVAL when
intializing
the shared memory)
BugId: n/a
Ser version: 0.8.8, 0.8.9, 0.8.10
Workaround: Upgrade to a 2.4.* kernel (older kernels don't support shared
mmaping of /dev/zero ) or
recompile ser with SYSV shm instead of
mmap (remove -DSHM_MMAP from Makefile.defs)
CVS status: n/a
I notice that im using 0.8.12 so not sure if that
makes any difference.
If anyone can help me by pointing in the right direction to either find out
what version of the Linux Kernel Im
using (assuming its Debian id have
thought that it was ok) or failing that any help on
either the hardware or
configuration of SER that I need to get it up and
running.
Thanks very much in advance for any help.
Ive trawled the docs but cant
find it. Any help would be much
appreciated.
