Hi, Whenever I uncomment i change the integer value of modparam("usrloc", "db_mode", 0) changed to 1 or 2 and when i about to restart SER using ./serctl stop then ./serctl start, SER strat but when i check ps aux | grep ser no SER is running. I checked /var/log/debug/ and i got this messages: Jun 9 00:45:10 sip ./ser[7553]: DEBUG: tm_shutdown : start Jun 9 00:45:10 sip ./ser[7553]: DEBUG: tm_shutdown : empting DELETE list Jun 9 00:45:10 sip ./ser[7553]: DEBUG: tm_shutdown : empting hash table Jun 9 00:45:10 sip ./ser[7553]: DEBUG: tm_shutdown: releasing timers Jun 9 00:45:10 sip ./ser[7553]: DEBUG: tm_shutdown : removing semaphores Jun 9 00:45:10 sip ./ser[7553]: DEBUG: tm_shutdown : done Jun 9 00:45:10 sip ./ser[7553]: shm_mem_destroy Jun 9 00:45:10 sip ./ser[7553]: destroying the shared memory lock Whats the meaning of destroying the shared memory lock? I'm running SER on FreeBSD/sparc64.
