Unexpected deadlock errors  SySAM does not run if file descriptors set to higher than 1024

Release Bulletin Sybase® Enterprise Portal Enterprise Edition Version 5.0 for Sun Solaris

Concurrent client connections are limited

Concurrent client connections to EAServer are limited by the operating system limit for the number of file descriptors that can be opened in one process.

Workaround: Before you start the server, set the file descriptor limit in the shell where you plan to start the server. For example, to set the limit to 1024:

  1. Using a text editor, open the bin/serverstart.sh file.

  2. Below the first comment block, add this line:

    ulimit -n 1024
    

See your UNIX documentation for more details on the ulimit command.
