Intermittent too many open files error and Invalid TLV error

Post Author: jam2008
CA Forum: General
I'm writing this up in the hopes of saving someone else a couple of days of hair-pulling...
Environment: Crystal Reports XI Enterprise / also runtime via Accpac ERP 5.4
Invalid TLV error in Accpac
"too many open files" error in event.log file
Situation:
Invalid TLV error occurs seemingly randomly on report created in CR Professional 11. Several days of troubleshooting finally lead to the following diagnosis:
This error occurs in a report that contains MORE THAN 1 bitmap image.
The error only shows up after 20 or more reports have been generated sequentially, WITHOUT CLOSING the application that is calling the report. In our case the Invoice Report dialog within Accpac. This same error occurred in a custom 3rd party VB.NET app that also called the report through an Accpac API.

after getting this message you need to do 2 things:
1. delete the current workspace because it contains some bad data in one the config files - failure to delete the workspace will result the error message to appear even if trying to upload a single file.
2. add to DTR files in groups - no more than 500 in a single add.

But this problem is understandable, as the database is not running. The main problem why database is not running, I have found the reason but do not understand how to solve the problem.
Since, the database was not running, I tried to startup the database, I then came across the following which is my problem (Why so many files are open? Linux OS error says too many files open. See below,
SQL> conn /as sysdba
Connected to an idle instance.
SQL> startup

Can anybody has run into such problem and guide me to a solution, please?
Thanks

Hi,
yes, this DB was functioning o.k. this configuration script was part of RMAN daily backup.
Last night the backup failed. So, when I opened "Failed job" in the EM, I saw this type of messages.
That was the starting point. Gradually, I tried to narrow down on to the actual problem and found the findings as I have posted.
One way of sovling problem, I thought that, all these processes I would kill and then try to open the database, it might startup. However, that wouldnot lead me in ensuring this won't occur again.
That's why I am trying to understand why it should open, so many processes (why spawn so many .flb files?) Any thoughts you have around this?
I will try to restart the OS as the last resort.
Thanks for your help and suggestions.
Regards,

Do you have any idea of what is happening?
Below the environment specifications:

Thank you, bye,

Hello Marco.
When you try to deploy an EAR weblogic server at the time of deployment unjar's it and compiles the files and so on. Every Operating system has a limit on how many number of files can be opened by a process. If your EAR is big then the number of files which WLS will unjar will also be large hence you hit the limit. By splitting your ear into 2, you are splitting wls task into smaller parts, which means the number of files it unjars at a time is less.
The following note tells what needs to be done to avert this issue.

What could this mean? It keeps appearing on my console. I"m trying to install a Fitbit Tracker and can't get it to recognize the device. wondering if this has something to do with it. Thanks!

It means you've installed some kind of third-party VPN software that isn't working.

Linux Error: 23: Too many open files in system

I crashed the my oracle instance with the following error:
Tue Feb 13 22:15:16 2001
Errors in file /home/oracle/product/8.1.6/admin/v2qa1/bdump/lgwr_14175.trc:

Linux Error: 23: Too many open files in system
Additional information: 2
LGWR: terminating instance due to error 313
Instance terminated by LGWR, pid = 14175
Is the number of open files adjustable?
Why am I opening files?
Could the fact that our java stored procedures are trying, unsuccessfully, be leaving files open?
Thanks - Craig
null

increasing the oracle users ulimit to unlimited fixed that error for me. Type
ulimit -a
and look at the open files parameter. See your linux doc's to increase it to unlimited (will probably be increased from 1024 to 4096).

Sorry for the late resp. Here's what dev suggests be investigated:
I would want to know:
Can they do a "$ORACLE_HOME/bin/dmstool -dump" and
save/compress/send the results?
Are there any errors printed in the Apache error_log while this leak occurs?
The customer could/should re-check their TCP settings, especially the TCP time wait interval and generally follow the TCP settings recommended in Chapter 5 of the iAS Performance Guide for 9.0.2.
Is there anything else interesting/unusual about the site?
Let us know how it goes.

Actually, the stuff works in interpreted mode.
It's only when having the server partition compiled that this happen.

Hi Jean-Paul,
As described in the Technote 10981 some Forte programs (Nodemanager and
router) handle correct the high-file descriptor-use problem. It is possible
that Forte interpreter do it correct too.

some server features
OS: Suse Linux Enterprise 10

Getting java.io.IOException: Too many open files+ClassNotFoundException

Dear All
We have a web application deployed on Rational Application Developer 6.0 (Operating System is Windows 2000 professional) our users are randomly getting java.io.IOException: Too many open files+ClassNotFoundException when they click on some servlet or jsp link, but they are getting this error randomly for example when they click some link they may get these exceptions but refreshing page or clicking once again on same link executes servlet successfully.If anyone could help on this topic we will be grateful
Thanks

I think this these two exceptions are occuring in differrent environment
java.io.IOException is occuring under heavy load to web server its stack trace is as follows:

sudo sysctl -w kern.maxfiles=32768
sudo sysctl -w kern.maxprocperuid=16384
seemed to work.
Created file /etc/sysctl.conf containing:
kern.maxfiles=32768
kern.maxprocperuid=16384
so that the setting would survive a reboot.
Hopefully that permanently fixes it.

Open Directory logging? (Too many open files)

I recently had a request from another admin to up the logging output of my OD servers. So I opened WGM, opened the OLCGlobalConfig section and changed the olcLogLevel to Filter. At which point my OD server stopped allowing edits and updates to the server. And started reporting "too many open files" in the system.log. So I guess I have 2 questions.
1) What is the proper method for increasing the log level of an OD server? The other admin is looking for query data and queries per second data. So if there is some other way of getting that data I'm all for it.
2) Is there any solution for the "too many open files" if I change the olcLogLevel in the future?
Thanks,
Derek

Explore the odutil command. There are 7 levels of logging available. error is the default. You may want to try notice to see if that gives you the information you want.
sudo odutil set log notice
