[Bug 462172] Re: samba Too many files are currently in use.
This bug was fixed in the package samba - 2:3.4.3-2ubuntu2 --- samba (2:3.4.3-2ubuntu2) lucid; urgency=low * debian/rules, debian/samba.if-up: allow NetworkManager as a recognized address family... it's obviously /not/ an address family, but it's what gets sent when using NM, so we'll cope for now. (LP: #462169). Taken from karmic-proposed. * debian/control: Recommend keyutils for smbfs (LP: #493565) * debian/patches/series, debian/patches/fix-too-many-open-files.patch: Windows 7 needs the Windows server open file handle number of 16384 handles.

Also having the same problem described above. Attaching two wireshark pcap files from the Win7 computer. I was copying files from an SMB server when the problem occurred. During the wireshark capture I just let it run and when the error dialog appears I click Try Again over and over until Samba frees enough files to allow the transfer to continue, then a few seconds later it runs into the problem again. -- samba Too many files are currently in use. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/462172 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to samba in ubuntu. -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs

Never mind, I wasn't thinking. Those files are too big for attachments. I just uploaded them to a web server, hope that's alright.

[Bug 462172] Re: samba Too many files are currently in use.
I receive the same problem: Copying a few thousand files from a Samba-share (Ubuntu 9.10, Samba 3.4.0) to Windows 7-Client (Ultimate x64) produces the error message mentioned above after a few seconds. It's a Windows Dialog. The exact Message is: Too many Files are currently in use. Quit one or more programs, and then try again. I can choose between [Try again], [Skip] and [Cancel] Waiting a few seconds and then choosing [Try again] copies a few more files until the message reappears. the longer I wait the longer it copies without interruption. Executing the command metioned above results in fs.file-max = 196754 That's 10 times bigger than the total amount of files to be copied. One thing I noticed: sudo smbstatus shows only two open files while idling but about 1013 open files in the moment when the message appears. While the dialog is open, the list shrinks continuously. After a few seconds it's nearly empty again. I didn't notice the problem on Ubuntu 9.04 using Windows XP Professional 32-Bit as client. A simple manual copy using the Windows GUI is basically possible, but other tools consuming a big amount of shared files seem to be unable to handle the exception properly (e.g. 7-zip crashes completely). It seems that Samba doesn't close opened files fast enough. I cannot decide whether Windows forgets to close the files properly or Samba ignores the close event. An (obfuscated) example line of an opened file in smbstatus: 1920 1000 DENY_WRITE 0x20089 RDONLY EXCLUSIVE+BATCH /home/me My Files/my file.txt Wed Nov 4 21:42:44 2009 It's a big problem for me since I'm totally unable to work with projects persisting of 1000+ files. The problem can be permanently reproduced in my case (1 GB/s LAN). Network load is around 1 % except for some 20 % peaks. The test project consists of many small text files (source code). If there's any more information I can provide to solve this problem, please let me know.

I just increased the amount of simultaneously opened files by samba inserting the following line into the [global]-section of smb.conf. max open files = 10240 After a restart I was able to copy the above mentioned project without an issue - but that's rather a workaround than a solution.

[Bug 462172] Re: samba Too many files are currently in use.
** Description changed: Binary package hint: samba When copying a directory with a good amount of files ( 1,000) to a Samba share from a Windows 7 client, I get the error Too many files are currently in use.. This only happens on Ubuntu Server 9.10 (Samba 3.4.0) . I have tested on Ubuntu 9.04 (Samba 3.2.0) and the copy was successful. While copying the files, I ran watch 'sudo lsof | grep smb | wc -l' and noticed that whenever the number of files open reaches somewhere between 1,200 and 1,300 I receive the error. If I wait a couple of seconds, the - number of open files drop down significantly and I am able to choose + number of files open drop down significantly and I am able to choose Try Again on the error dialog, but once the number of files open climbs back up, the error reappears. I am filling this as a bug because the copying of files works on a fresh install of 9.04, but fails on 9.10. -- samba Too many files are currently in use. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/462172 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to samba in ubuntu. -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs
