             Summary: Serving docs locally with jekyll fails with inotify limit
                 Key: FLINK-13018
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-13018
             Project: Flink
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Documentation
    Affects Versions: 1.9.0
            Reporter: Nico Kruber
            Assignee: Nico Kruber


Both {{build-docs.sh -i}} and {{build-docs.sh -p}} currently fail (also in the 
dockerized builds in {{docs/docker}}):

jekyll 3.7.2 | Error:  Too many open files - Failed to initialize inotify: the 
user limit on the total number of inotify instances has been reached.
{code}

Probably, {{inotify}} is used in a way to monitor single files and not just 
directories but I don't know that and couldn't find a way to change how jekyll 
is using inotify.

I wouldn't suggest working around by setting a higher inotify limit but 
upgrading jekyll did not solve it and so far there are two options:
# disable watching files via {{--no-watch}}
# use polling instead of `inotify` via `--force_polling`
# try to reduce the set of files by adding excludes for (expected) static files
