You may find that the problem isn't the number of on-disk files but the number of file descriptors, which might actually have different meanings on your system. It's also possible that the JVM is giving you a spurious message about "too many files" when the problem is really the number of /threads/ -- I've seen that in the past, too. Can you post the exact stack trace that you got along with this error? Also, how about the output of "ulimit -a" for the user that actually runs Tomcat? Finally, what do your <Connector> elements look like in conf/server.xml? - -chris -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.10 (MingW32) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org/ iEYEARECAAYFAk5VRJ8ACgkQ9CaO5/Lv0PCD1gCgk7+nPVcTrN87QRiceYYYjnfi SdEAoK/4AUixlaSqINfTdnLHty+/zI/B =aigt -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@tomcat.apache.org
