Roberto Resoli commented on DAEMON-192: --------------------------------------- I definitely agree! Examples would be really useful, since many hints on the web about this subject suggest that setting ulimits is only matter to modify /etc/security/limits.conf . Unfortunately this is absolutely not true, since that configuration file is enforced only at login time. > Make jsvc enforce /etc/security/limits.conf , or add a parameter for setting > limits > ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: DAEMON-192 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DAEMON-192 > Project: Commons Daemon > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: Jsvc > Environment: Linux, maybe all Unixes > Reporter: Roberto Resoli > Priority: Minor > > When launched with -user parameter, jsvc downgrades user via setuid() system > call, but the operating system limits (max number of open files, for example) > remains the same. > This is not convenient for running daemons (like Tomcat) which very often > need a customization of such limits. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
