			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>If you&#39;ve gotten this error:</p>
<p>[crit] (13)Permission denied: Failed to attach to existing dashboard, and removing dashboard file &#39;/tmp/mod_mono_dashboard_XXGLOBAL_1&#39; failed (Operation not permitted). Further action impossible.</p>
<p>Then it isn&#39;t as bad as you might think. &nbsp;From &quot;grendel&quot; on irc.gnome.org, this error is a bug in the startup routine for the mono dashboard functions. &nbsp;This causes a finite leak in the mod_mono code that basically fires off extra code that can be identified and corrected (at each startup) with the tools ipcs and ipcrm.</p>
<p>Grendel said he is working on it and should expect it to be fixed in the 2.6 release scheduled for June 2009. &nbsp;To quote him directly, &quot;It&#39;s an annoying error&quot; but it isn&#39;t that bad. &nbsp;It is safe to run the code, even in production.</p>
