Group, I tried up'ing my qty of file descriptors because Apache won't start after about 547 virtual hosts. I thought I up'd my file-max, but it's not helping. My analysis shows that I have 200000 available files and I have 832 open. However, Apache won't start unless I comment out the ErrorLog and AccessLog lines in the virtual host directives. The file paths are all correct and there are no syntax errors in the virtual hosts. I can add more virtual hosts as long as they do not reference log files. Recon: [root@localhost ~]# cat /proc/sys/fs/file-max 200000 [root@localhost ~]# cat /proc/sys/fs/file-nr 832 0 200000 [root@localhost ~]# lsof | wc -l 2315 Am I totally barking up the wrong tree? Help? ; ) .randy -- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - --------------------------------------------------- PLUG-discuss mailing list - PLUG-discuss@lists.plug.phoenix.az.us To subscribe, unsubscribe, or to change your mail settings: http://lists.PLUG.phoenix.az.us/mailman/listinfo/plug-discuss
