Hello,

I am another with lots of domains on the box and maxing out my file descriptors. I've followed the directions here:

http://kb.swsoft.com/article_41_260_en.html

for each of those packages (although newer versions) and been able to successfully recompile everything except PHP. I'm hoping to find out if you (scott) happen to remember or have wrote down somewhere if PHP 5.04 for RHEL3 was compiled with higher than 1024 file descriptors?

I'll be looking for a src.rpm in the meantime to recompile

Thanks

Jordan

Its set to 4096 in my build environment. Keep in mind youve also got to recompile imap, openssl, and apache to do it.

Thanks Scott... just making sure. I have rebuilt those SRPM's already and installed them, although I had not set the value via ulimit -n

Do you know if I must have ulimit -n set correctly during the build, or if simply changing the values in the files mentioned at http://kb.swsoft.com/article_41_260_en.html is enough?

Thanks,

Jordan

Youve got to modify FD_SETSIZE in the appropriate types files. Then recompile the binaries in the right order, openssl, apache, imap, and then php.

Are you aware of any way to check and see if the compiled version is using the full number of descriptors? I changed the values in all those files and rebuild them in exactly that order, but I'm still getting "REQUIRE(maxfd <= (int)1024) failed" in the error log.

Any suggestions?

Thanks,

Jordan

Other than by looking at the source code, no.

This is bind-utils package. It needs to be rebuilt. I found about it in the plesk knowledgebase let me know if it helps
