you can use the --worker-exec option. This is used to run php-fastcgi (or other software requiring specific environment) under the uWSGI environment uwsgi --limit-as 256 --worker-exec /bin/ls As others have already said to you, remember that limits set by a parent are inherited by all of the children. So running apps via fork+exec or via attach-daemon in uWSGI will set their limit automatically. -- Roberto De Ioris http://unbit.it -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
