[rabbitmq-discuss] limits.conf not working...

Tue Apr 17 16:23:33 BST 2012

Things to check:

* Have you genuinely raised the limit for the rabbitmq user? (sounds like
you have)
Yes, both with the ulimit command and on the limits.conf file

* Is RabbitMQ actually running as the rabbitmq user?
Yes, here:

*patilla at test:~$ ps aux | grep rabbitmq-server*
patilla  22942  0.0  0.0   7640   948 pts/0    S+   17:19   0:00 grep
--color=auto rabbitmq-server
*rabbitmq *29109  0.0  0.0   4096   624 pts/0    S    15:56   0:00 */bin/sh
/usr/sbin/rabbitmq-server*

* Have you restarted the server? (since ulimit is only checked on "login".
I tried restarting rabbit server and rebooting the machine.
I get the value in limits.conf when I run ulimit -n but not on the
managemnet plugin site...

Any thoughts?

Thanks!

patilla.
