[jira] Created: (JAMES-612) James File Repository Error: Too many open files

James File Repository Error: Too many open files
------------------------------------------------

                 Key: JAMES-612
                 URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JAMES-612
             Project: James
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: MailStore & MailRepository
    Affects Versions: 2.3.0rc1
         Environment: james 2.3.0rc1, java 1.5, linux
            Reporter: Guillermo Grandes


under certain circumstances, too many files are opened and the JVM gives back the following error: FileNotFoundException: "Too many open files"
at the moment I have been able it to reproduce with high load or stop james with many mails in spoolqueue and start again

I have been able to see the files that erase of the Spool directory, but they are not closed, can who Mr. Garbage Collector does not release the objects, I have proven to call System.gc(), this workarround works, but the speed is bad. 
Another workarround is set SpoolManager Threads to 1 but is the same speed (turtle).

Hi Guillermo, please try upgrading to rc2 or to the latest test build posted by noel in his people.apache.org home directory some day ago.

After rc1 we fixed a bug related to your problem.

Please tell us if you can reproduce it after the upgrade!

-----------------------------------------

Hello Stefano,

I have watched the changes of the RC2 and suppose that the patch to which you talked about was JAMES-584. I have updated to the RC2 and I have tested of workload, now works "PERFECT".

Two birds of a shot ;-)

Thank you very much.
