Hi everybody, I am using OpenSuSE 10.0 with default installation and kernel 2.6. When an application tries to run with root user, it returns an error "Can not open files - too many open files". I checked kernel limits (file-max, file-nr) and bash limits (limits.conf) then have changed values as follows. ulimit open files (-n) 10240 sysctl fs.file-max = 10240 fs.file-nr = 600 0 10240 After I restart, I am still having same error message. I am listing and counting open files with lsof command. It seems, it can not open files more than 1024. Does anyone have any idea what is wrong about that?
