Well the riak-cs / riak / stanchion scripts all drop privileges using sudo. On RHEL/Centos this sudo exec carries the settings from the calling user (in the case of init.d, root) so things are fine there. On Ubuntu/Debian that does not always work. So if you set the ulimit for the root user, it might not propagate through to the riak-cs / riak / stanchion users.
So to change that, you should try to change it in /etc/security/limits.conf. Good luck. -Jared On Wed, May 15, 2013 at 9:54 PM, Toby Corkindale < toby.corkind...@strategicdata.com.au> wrote: > I added some debugging to the /etc/init.d/riak-cs script. > As far as it's concerned the ulimit has been successfully increased in > there, right before it calls start-stop-daemon. > > Is it possible that part of the Debian infrastructure is dropping > privileges? > > > On 16/05/13 12:34, Toby Corkindale wrote: > >> I'm confused -- I'm still seeing some warnings from Riak/RiakCS about >> the ulimit being set too low, even though I *am* increasing it. >> >> What am I doing wrong here? >> >> >> # cat /etc/default/riak-cs >> ulimit -n 32000 >> >> # ulimit -n 8192 >> # service riak-cs start >> !!!! >> !!!!
