Unlike other people asking for help in this group I successfully
compiled Apache 1.3.12 with mod_ssl 2.6.5 (DSO), mod_php 3.0.16,
mod_perl 1.24, mod_fastcgi 2.2.4 and mod_auth_ora8 (DSO) on
Solaris 7. I also instructed Apache to use the shared memory library
MM 1.1.3 (EAPI_MM=SYSTEM for Apache; --with-mm for mod_php).

Unfortunately this doesn't work on my production box with default
shared memory settings, but runs fine on a test box which has non-default
shared memory settings in /etc/system.

Since these changes require a reboot, they should be chosen carefully.
Can anyone give proper shared memory sizing guidelines for Apache with
the given configuration?

Kind regards,
Thomas

The trouble is that the mm test suite tries to figure out how much
memory it can get away with allocating on the system you're testing it
on. IIRC a standard max size on solaris 7 (ultra5) was about 1MB. But
having Oracle on the same server might get you in trouble - it is
usually a big user of shared memory.
