I'm at a loss on this one. I have a multithreaded script that gets 'thread.error: can't start new thread' errors seemingly randomly. I just got it right after starting the script when it was trying to create the 5th thread. Usually the script will run for a while before throwing this error, but sometimes it throws it right away.
This script has worked without a problem for months, but I did make some changes to it recently. I don't see how those changes would cause this error though. It's also on a VPS so it's possible that they changed something in the OS. Does anyone have any suggestions about possible causes of this error? I'm using Python 2.2.3 on a custom vps version of FC1. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
