ejabberd - Comments for "Increased user limit"

Thanks!

Ahhh, ok... I thought it was system-wide, and was setting ulimit in my init.d script, then running jabsimul as another user in another shell entirely.

Thanks for the help!

set ulimit on every console

Check this: the limitation in the number of open file descriptors is a limitation applied per shell. Every shell, console, bash... that you open will have another limitation for 1024 descriptors.

If you modify this number executing 'ulimit -n 2000', you are modifying the limit for that shell. So, you must execute this command on the console where you will start ejabberd and on the console where you will start jabsimul.

Before starting any of those file-descriptors-eaters, make sure again that the limit has really increased:

# ulimit -n
1024
# ulimit -n 15000
# ulimit -n
15000
# erl ...  or jabsimul ...

Yep, I have followed that, and have set my server up the same way with all the same settings, which is why I think it must be a Linux issue rather than an ejabberd or erlang issue.
