Monitor process failed error in API

We're getting the following errors during a call t the n_texis() API. It seems like I've seen this before, but can't remember what the circumstances were. File permisions look OK.

ERROR: Monitor process failed to create license segment
ERROR: SQLPrepare() failed with -1 In the function: prepntexis

Is your program running as the same user as the monitor? Did you check if the license segment already exists and if it's owned by the right user? monitor.log might also have some useful information.

How do you check if the license segment already exits?

The unix system command
ipcs
Look for a key starting with 0xdbac

What about for Windows?

On windows that message would be caused by the monitor not being able to start up. INSTALLDIR\texis\monitor.log should contain more detailed errors.
