Synopsis: Can't Spawn Child Processes State-Changed-From-To: open-closed State-Changed-By: marc State-Changed-When: Thu Dec 9 01:15:18 PST 1999 State-Changed-Why: You need to increase the limits that your OS imposes on the number of processes that can be run per process. BSD/OS os infamous for low default limits that cause pains like this. See /etc/login.conf and/or run "limits" from a shell before starting the server to see what the ulimits are set to. Your BSDI docs will have more detail on changing the ulimits.
