I am getting this dump - SYSTEM_SHM_AREA_OBSOLETE

PLease help

Works as designed.

Quote from documentation for free_instance:

After this method has been executed, all programs where area handles still exist for the released area instance versions are terminated with the SYSTEM_SHM_AREA_OBSOLETE runtime error.

Not sure why your are using free instance anyway. The invalidation should be sufficient. Also at the beginning of your code, you use detach and detach_commit in succession, detach_commit is enough to close the changing connection.
