OBAM INTERNAL ERROR

Hi all,
i had a problem while trying to run SAM.
I have this error:
OBAM INTERNAL ERROR: Cannot fork: Not enough space
sam: Error: The cpp(1) command failed on file:/usr/sam/lib/C/fal.ui.
What does this mean? I ran top and I saw that the CPU is idle 99.8%. and the memory seems ok. Any idea about the problem? How to solve?
Thanks in advance.

Hi there.
Usually this means, that there is not enough memory left to start another child process or to split the parent process.
Check your memory with ipcs -a to see whether everything with the memory is ok, inlcuding semaphores etc.
