Ejabberd 2.1.5 Connection issues

Hi,

I'm running ejabberd 2.1.5 with more or less only MUC installed and up to 400 people in the same MUC Room (via HTTP-Bind).
Recently, I ran into some problems regarding connection.
Our users complained about connection loss but I can't really figure out what happens.

Memory is max 413MB used of 2GB (monthly max) and load is 0.08 in 15min average this month (0.13 in 1min max this month), so I don't think that's the problem.

I'm currently looking through the logs but I didn't find anything until now.

Does anyone have the same problems or can tell me how I could figure it out?
Do I need to upgrade to a newer version of ejabberd (I don't really want this, because then I can't use the Debian package from apt anymore).

//Edit:
I'm digging through the logs and see now in the time period where the connection issues happen sometimes the following log:

=INFO REPORT==== 2011-10-10 21:00:38 ===
I(<0.18895.1222>:ejabberd_http_bind:508) : Session timeout. Closing the HTTP bind session: "cc2a05e5af3f502489da119465ada229469b222e"

Could this be a problem? I think so. But how could I resolve it? Would it be better with a newer version or with an external BOSH Module like punjab?

Thank you very much,
Michael

I don't see any relevant

I don't see any relevant improvements regarding BOSH in ejabberd 2.1.6 .. 2.1.9, so there isn't guarantee that upgrading will help.

From what you say, it's easier for you to install Punjab and other BOSH services, and experiment if that helps your problem. If so, please comment here your results.

Last week I increased the

Last week I increased the file handle limit for the ejabberd user. I currently don't know yet if it helped (I got that tip from the ejabberd mailinglist).

Before ejabberd, we used openfire and punjab and it was pretty stable (punjab at least), so maybe if the file handle limit increasing doesn't help, I'll try it again :)

Sorry I forgot about this

Sorry I forgot about this thread and didn't tell about my success:
It did really help increasing the file handle limit.
