[jira] [Closed] (FLINK-13018) Serving docs locally with jekyll fails with inotify limit

["Nico Kruber (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

     [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-13018?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Nico Kruber closed FLINK-13018.
-------------------------------
    Resolution: Works for Me

Looks like this was solved by rebooting and thus resetting any rogue inotify instances.

I also verified that starting the build and stopping it (with the current code) does not leak inotify instances by looking at
{code}
find /proc/*/fd/* -type l -lname 'anon_inode:inotify' 2>/dev/null | wc -l
{code}

> jekyll 3.7.2 | Error:  Too many open files - Failed to initialize inotify: the user limit on the total number of inotify instances has been reached.
> {code}
> I wouldn't suggest working around by setting a higher inotify limit but upgrading jekyll did not solve it and so far there are two options:
> # disable watching files via {{--no-watch}}
> # use polling instead of `inotify` via `--force_polling`
> # try to reduce the set of files by adding excludes for (expected) static files
