The canonical place is /etc/apache2/envvars, which is sourced by apache2ctl. apache2ctl even executes the value of APACHE_ULIMIT_MAX_FILES if it is set. Try adding APACHE_ULIMIT_MAX_FILES="ulimit -n 65535" But this lacks documentation :-( -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
