Too many open files error -- using tomcat 6.0.14 on RHEL 4

[Kim Albee <mt...@gmail.com>]

We're seeing an error that we didn't see yesterday, but when we
modified -Xmx settings for Tomcat, we no cannot get past the issue
"Too many open files") and the sites on the server are not serving --
except this error.

We've changed the settings back, but any restart causes the same issues.

How do we fix this????

thanks,
Kim :-)

Since you are on a Linux system, use a little utility called "lsof"
This one will list all the file descriptor associated with your process.
When you get the output, it will point you to where you are using up all 
your file descriptors.

Also, check your "ulimit -n" setting for the user running the java process
