Hi there i have this problem with mailman (Only application that says too
many open files)

Jan 23 03:00:58 2004 qrunner(14039):   File
"/usr/local/mailman/bin/qrunner", line 270, in ?
Jan 23 03:00:58 2004 qrunner(14039):   File
"/usr/local/mailman/bin/qrunner", line 230, in main
Jan 23 03:00:58 2004 qrunner(14039):   File
"/usr/local/mailman/Mailman/Queue/Runner.py", line 65, in run
Jan 23 03:00:58 2004 qrunner(14039):   File
"/usr/local/mailman/Mailman/Queue/Runner.py", line 115, in _oneloop
Jan 23 03:00:58 2004 qrunner(14039):   File
"/usr/local/mailman/Mailman/Queue/Switchboard.py", line 128, in enqueue
Jan 23 03:00:58 2004 qrunner(14039): IOError :  [Errno 24] Too many open
files:
'/usr/local/mailman/qfiles/shunt/1074823257.959132+2d184a62e8df29922f9f94d7c
4f3811601ecf1e1.pck'

My sysctl settings for max openfiles etc.

kern.maxfiles: 60000
kern.maxfilesperproc: 4096
kern.openfiles: 1123

So the program has max 4096 files he can open...

Does anybody have clue about what's happening, please not that i first hat
30.000 max files and i increased
that for mailman, also maxfilesperproc where increased.
