Hi,
1) How many fds does the process have, so is the question "why can't we
use all those 4096 fds configured", or is it "Where do those 4096
fdsused by my process come from"?
2) CLOSE_WAIT means the remote side closed the connection and the local
side didn't yet close it. What's you remote side with respect to TCP? Is
it browsers, or a load balancer or stuff like that?
3) Are you using keep alive (not implying that's the cause of your
problems, but keep alive makes the connection live cycle much more
complicated from the container point of view).
Regards,
Rainer

Hi there,
we use the current Tomcat 6.0 on 2 machines. The hardware is brand new and is
really fast. We get lots of traffic which is usually handled well by the
tomcats and the load on those machines is between 1 and 6 (when we have lots of
traffic).
The machines have debian 4.1/64 as OS.
However, sometimes (especially if we have lots of traffic) we get the following
exception:
INFO | jvm 1 | 2008/01/23 15:28:18 | java.net.SocketException: Too many

We already have altered the ulimit from 1024 (default) to 4096 (and therefore
proofing: yes, I have used google and read almost everything about that
exception).
We also looked into the open files and all 95% of them are from or to the
Tomcat Port 8080. (The other 5% are open JARs, connections to memcached and
MySQL and SSL-Socket).
Most of the connections to port 8080 are in the CLOSE_WAIT state.
I have the strong feeling that something (tomcat, JVM, whatsoever) relies that
the JVM garbage collection will kill those open connections. However, if we
have heavy load, the garbage collection is suspended and then the connections
pile up. But this is just a guess.
How can this problem be solved?
Thank you and kind regards,
Tobias.
