Public bug reported: I run a terminalserver under Ubuntu 11.10 (oneiric) and CUPS 1.5.0-8ubuntu6. Unfortunately i get "Max clients reached, holding new connections..." error.
I try to increase the MaxClients value to 8192 in /etc/cups/cupsd.conf (and LogLevel to debug) but CUPS reduces this to 1/3 of file descriptor limit from the system with is by default 1024: /var/log/cups/error_log I [22/Feb/2012:12:02:37 +0100] Using default TempDir of /var/spool/cups/tmp... I [22/Feb/2012:12:02:37 +0100] MaxClients limited to 1/3 (341) of the file descriptor limit (1024)... I [22/Feb/2012:12:02:37 +0100] Configured for up to 341 clients. Also i try to set higher file descriptor limit in /etc/security/limits.conf root hard nofile 64000 root soft nofile 64000 and also add "session required pam_limits.so" to /etc/pam.d/common- session but CUPS set still MaxClients to 341. Ulimit seams to works fine: root@ts:~# ulimit -n 64000 Before i upgrade to Oneiric i have same configuration on Ubuntu 10.04 Lucid and CUPS 1.4.3-1ubuntu1 with works fine. This seams to by a similar bug to: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=446023 Lets me know if you need some more information.
