Re: too many open files. How to increase the limit

By the way... there is a place in which tell to the system that the
maximum number of open file is different from 1024?

Run the command sysctl -a to see the kernel params. One of them is
fs.file-max. Increase the value there to allow kernel to have more
file handles.

Increase the number of file handles by editing /etc/sysctl.conf and
changing the property fs.file-max to some higher number than what you
saw earlier.
If there isn't a value set already for this property, you need to add
the line fs.file-max=some value.

Then run sysctl -p to apply your changes to your system.
