Hi Everyone,

Thanks for your responses. I wanted to follow up because I *think* I may have resolved the issue, not 100% sure yet, the problem could still come back in a few months. However, even though it may have been resolved, it doesn't really make sense to me as to why this way, and none of the others. So I wanted to run it by here to see if anyone has any insight.

 The fix was to add a line to the /etc/init.d/httpd script.

ulimit -n 8000

A more robust place to do that is /etc/sysconfig/httpd. Many RH/F packages have configuration information set there, and Debian does likewise in /etc/defaults/


This raises the FD limit for the apache user right before the httpd process is spawned.

So why didn't all the other ways I tried have any effect? This was supposed to happen when I raised the limits in the /etc/security/limits.conf right? Also, when I upped the limits directly in the proc filesystem.

I'm glad it's fixed, but confused as to why nothing else seemed to work.

Also, the next time my /etc/init.d/httpd file is overwritten by a system update the fix goes away. So how do I fix this the real way, without hacking the init script?

Like I said.
