client get segmentation fault when attach to shared memory - c

Question

Hi i want to implement a client-server program that communicates with each other via shared memory.
in the server side i have two threads. a writer thread and a reader thread. the writer thread puts some data into the queue and the reader thread reads from it and passes the data to the client side via shared memory.each client that has shmid can attach itself to it and read data from it...
right now i get segmentation fault at client side when it comes to attach to shared memory.
here is my code:
server side:
typedef struct shared_mem {
char imgDir[100];
int client_id;
int read_client;
sem_t shm_sem;
}shared_mem;
shared_mem *shared;
int main(int argc , char *argv[])
{
pthread_t writer_t, reader_t;
queue_t = (struct Queue*) malloc(sizeof(Queue));
queue_t->head = 0;
queue_t->tail = 0;
sem_init(&queue_t->empty, 0, QUEUE_SIZE);
sem_init(&queue_t->full, 1, 0);
int shmid;
key_t key;
key =3434;
//Create the segment and set permissions.
if ((shmid = shmget(key, sizeof(struct shared_mem), IPC_CREAT | 0666)) < 0)
{
perror("shmget error");
if(errno==EEXIST)
{
fprintf(stderr,"shared memory exist... ");
exit(1);
}
}
fprintf(stdout,"shared mem created with id: %d\n",shmid);
if( pthread_create( &reader_t , NULL , reader_thread , &shmid) < 0)
{
perror("could not create reader thread");
return 1;
}
puts("reader thread assigned");
if( pthread_create( &writer_t , NULL , writer_thread , NULL) < 0)
{
perror("could not create writer thread");
return 1;
}
puts("writer thread assigned");
pthread_join(reader_t, NULL);
pthread_join(writer_t, NULL);
shmctl(shmid,IPC_RMID,NULL);
return 0;
}
