Apache 1.3.1
>Description:
When running Apache 1.3.1, I get the following error message:
[Tue Aug 4 07:28:31 1998] [warn] (24)Too many open files: unable to open a file
descriptor above 15, you may need to increase the number of descriptors
fopen: Too many open files
httpd: could not open error log file /var/log/httpd/city.palmdale.ca.us/error_lo
g.
I do not get this error message when using Apache 1.2.4 with the same
configuration files
on the same server. I've seen other reports of this on Usenet under Solaris.
I've done all the checking I can do, and everything I look at claims that the
per-process
file descriptor limit is 128. I have about 150 virutal hosts under the
configuration.
Any help would be appreciated.

>How-To-Repeat:
This happens during start-up. If you would like access to our server, we can
make arrangements.
>Fix:
Sorry... The only thing I can think of is either getrlimit or setrlimit aren't
work as expected.
