Hi,

Do as below this solved similar issue with me.

execute command u201Cipcs -mau201D and note the line that contains

saposcol key u201C4dbeu201D. You need the shared memory ID. After that, execute

command

ipcrm -m ID

Now the command u201Csaposcol -su201D should show that saposcol is not running and

that the shared memory is not attached. The shared memory key will be

created automatically by the saposcol when the collector is next started:

u201Csaposcol -lu201D.

Check that saposcol has permissions 4775 with owner root. then restart saposcol and it should be fine.
