We just figured this out.
I had placed in file: /etc/security/limits.conf the following:
* soft nofile 16384
* hard nofile 32768
But it turns out that we also needed to edit: /etc/pam.d/common-session and
add the following line to the end:
session required pam_limits.so
Once we did this and restarted, the problem went away! :)
Thanks for getting back to me though... :)
