influx error:: too many open files

[priyankamondalairtel]

Hi Team,

we are getting error in influxdb service. Also everyday one time this service is getting stopped. PFB error I am getting:

http: Accept error: accept tcp [::]:8086: accept4: too many open files; retrying in 5ms [root@XTMSXFTLLWGLJFB influxdb]# cat /etc/redhat-release Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server release 6.6 (Santiago) [root@XTMSXFTLLWGLJFB influxdb]# rpm -qa|grep influx influxdb-1.7.6-1.x86_64

ulimit detail: [root@XTMSXFTLLWGLJFB influxdb]# ulimit -Sn 1024 [root@XTMSXFTLLWGLJFB influxdb]# ulimit -Hn 4096

can you please suggest how can I resolve this issue.

Thanks & Regards, Priyanka

@priyankamondalairtel thanks for the issue. try increasing your open files to the max allowed by your system. I believe you might have to restart the server to make this work.
