Hello All,
I have solved the problem, I managed to increase the filedescriptor
from 1024
This what I have done on (Ubuntu hardy) it should work on most Ubuntu OS and
Debians
I first needed to see the max that my System can support
run this command first:
cat /proc/sys/fs/file-max
it will display the maximum that you're system can currently handle
to increase that number
you need first to run this command
let's assume XXXXX is a number 46900
echo XXXX > proc/sys/fs/file-max (where the xx is the number you want to
add)
you then need to add this into the file
/etc/sysctl.conf file
fs.file-max = XXXXX (that same number again)
After you've done this.
check again with this command
systcl -p
It's all stored in
/proc/sys/fs/file-nr (just run this command to get the output)
To modify the limit descriptors per session
We need to add this to our limits.conf
emacs or vi /etc/security/limits.conf
and add
* soft nofile XXXXX
* hard nofile XXXXX
Note you can use either or both of the above two lines
And you can use a specific user instead of the wildcard "*" which is at the
beginning of each line, it means to all users on your system
save it and then you can check with ulimit -n
if you still get 1024 you probably need to reboot your system altogether, on
mine it didn't show until I rebooted anyway.
I hope this will help someone somewhere at some point
Regards
Adam

Hi,
Did you try using ulimit?

Hi All,
I have tried everything so far I definitely have increased my file
descriptors on my Ubuntu OS
from 1024 to 46622
But when I start Squid 3.0 STABLE25 I doesn't seem to detect the real
descriptor's size
I have checked the sysctl.conf, and I have checked the system to make
sure that the correct size
/etc/sysctl.confWhen I run this I more /proc/sys/fs/file-maxI get
46622But Squid3.0 seem to only detect 1024Is there anything that I am not
doing please?
I don't know what else to do
Thank you
Regards
Adam
