CRS-07501

The Oracle Grid Infrastructure process 'string' does not have enough permissions to open the shared memory file <ORACLE_BASE>/crsdata/string/shm/string*.

Cause

The reason for this issue was one of the following:

  • The user running this process does not have permissions to open the shared memory file.
  • The shared memory file permissions were not correct.

Action

(a) Check the status of the Oracle Grid Interprocess Communication (GIPC) daemon and check the existence of GIPC daemon shared memory file. (b) If the GIPC daemon is online and if the GIPC daemon shared memory file exists, then check the file permissions of the GIPC daemon shared memory file. If the permissions are not set correctly, investigate to determine the reason. (c) Check the user that is running the process has the access rights.
