The error message you provided, "unknown error, open ...-shm errno: -4094," appears to be related to a file operation or system error, but it lacks specific context. This error message suggests that there was an issue opening a file with a shared memory (shm) suffix, and the error code (errno) associated with this issue is -4094.

To diagnose and resolve this error, you may need more information or context about the situation in which it occurred. Here are some general steps you can take to troubleshoot:

Check the File Path: Make sure that the file path mentioned in the error message is correct and accessible. Ensure that the file exists at the specified location.

Permissions: Verify that you have the necessary permissions to access and open the file. Use the ls -l or chmod command to check and adjust file permissions if needed.

Resource Availability: Ensure that there is enough system resources (e.g., memory, disk space) available to open the file. Resource constraints can sometimes lead to file-related errors.

File Locking: Check if the file is locked by another process. Some files may be locked for exclusive access by another program, preventing you from opening them simultaneously.

File Corruption: If the file is corrupted, you may encounter errors when trying to open it. Try to restore the file from a backup if available or attempt to repair it if possible.

System Logs: Review system logs or application-specific logs to see if there is more detailed information about the error. Logs may provide additional context and clues to the root cause.

Application-Specific Troubleshooting: If this error is occurring within a specific application or software, consult the documentation or support resources for that application. The error message might be related to its internal workings.

If you provide more context about the situation where this error occurred or the specific software or system involved, I may be able to provide more targeted advice. Additionally, if you can provide the complete error message or any additional error details, it would be helpful for further diagnosis.

ChatGPT (or Claude or something) output 😕

I think a file locking issue is the most likely cause because Windows' file locking is unique, and I've never seen this error reported on Linux or Mac.

I've found the cause; it will be fixed in the next release (1.0.137).
