         DETAIL:  Failed system call was shmget(key=1, size=1818624,
 03600).
         HINT:  This error usually means that PostgreSQL's request for a
 shared memory segment exceeded available memory or swap space. To reduce
 the request size (currently 1818624 bytes), reduce PostgreSQL's
 shared_buffers parameter (currently 50) and/or its max_connections
 parameter (currently 10).
                 The PostgreSQL documentation contains more information
 about shared memory configuration.
