Response message: Non HTTP response message: Too many open files
Hi,
we're testing a web site under 1000 users (threads) load.
Currently our servers hold about 500 simultaneous users with great
latencies.
With more users the requests fail. But I'm not sure where the problem
is. Whether it the server declines or JMeter or JVM problem. Looking at
the error messages in responses (see below) I'd say that JVM (or rather
OS, Debian Lenny 64) meets its limits...

Sample Count: 1
Error Count: 1
Response code: Non HTTP response code: java.net.SocketException

And a valid answer looks like this:

"Non HTTP" means that the error is detected by JMeter, not generated
by the server.

No, it's a problem on the JMeter host - it has run out of sockets.
Either make more sockets available, or use fewer threads on that host
(and some more on another host).

Id verify it by checking the server logs (or number of open sockets)
Im not sure what the jmeter error log would look like if it was the jmeter
that ran out of file descriptors (for the sockets)
If you cant check the server logs/dont have access to it , an easy to verify
is run the same test (but with only half the number of threads) on two
client machines i.e. run jmeter from too different machines at the same
time. If its a server issue then you should see the same errors.

Hi
It looks like your server has reached its limit . you probably need to
change ulimit on the server. When your requests fail you can probably check
the number of open sockets on the server (using netstat or equivalent). .
there are other OS related parameters related to how long the socket should
be kept open even after it is closed which affect OS behavior
