Too many open files

Hi ,
I'm using RTC 3.0.1
I get this error in the catalina.out log:

Aug 19, 2011 12:00:20 AM org.apache.tomcat.util.net.PoolTcpEndpoint acceptSocket
SEVERE: Endpoint ] ignored exception: java.net.SocketException: Too many open files
java.net.SocketException: Too many open files
at java.net.PlainSocketImpl.socketAccept(Native Method)
at java.net.PlainSocketImpl.accept(PlainSocketImpl.java:457)

at org.apache.tomcat.util.net.PoolTcpEndpoint.acceptSocket(PoolTcpEndpoint.java:408)
at org.apache.tomcat.util.net.LeaderFollowerWorkerThread.runIt(LeaderFollowerWorkerThread.java:71)
at org.apache.tomcat.util.threads.ThreadPool$ControlRunnable.run(ThreadPool.java:689)
at java.lang.Thread.run(Thread.java:811)

What can be the problem? and how can I resolve it?
Thanks,
Yehiel

Are you on Linux?
If so, some instructions for increasing the open file limit are
available at the top of this workitem:
28447: "too many open files" error on Linux
https://jazz.net/jazz/resource/itemName/com.ibm.team.workitem.WorkItem/28447

Note: running a search on either the jazz.net forums or the jazz.net
work items will often get you an answer. (I pasted this answer from an
earlier posting in this forum).

Cheers,
Geoff
