Hi Jiri,
thanks for the fast response. Unfortunately it's not the cause of my problem...
uname is saying: Linux ---.vserver.de 2.4.16-016stab010.1.777-enterprise #1 SMP
I will try the workaround anyway....
cheers, felix

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

Hello all,
I am a beginner to ser; I hope I can get some help on this list with my problem.
I got ser running on several machines on my home network (it's not difficult though); however now I am trying run install ser on my internet host, which runs on a virtual machine, to set up my own small test bed. The provider limits the memory to be used by each vm to 32MB. When I start ser I get this error:
#/usr/sbin/ser 'Too much shared memory demanded: 33554432'
Is it possible to change the amount of memory ser allocates? I have read the docs and guides accompanying ser, but I can't remember having read something about an option like this. Can I just change the amount of memory being allocated in the sourcecode without screwing ser up? I can live with ser not being able to serve thousands of requests - a couple of dozens is enough for me. If so, can someone point me to the line of code that is causing the error (I am suspecting the ser memory allocation initialization routine)?
Help would be very appreciated, cheers, felix
