File sharing reports too many users connected

SPECS: Mac Mini Core 2 Duo 2 GHz, 2G RAM, Mac OS X 10.6.4. Other users in office also running similar hardware and Mac OS X 10.6.4.
CLARIFICATION: This Mini is used as a file server in a small law office (4 other workstations). It is running Mac OS X Client, not Server. I refer to the machine as "the server" but wanted to be clear the operating system is the same on all stations.
HISTORY & CONFIG: This system was setup in November 2009. It provides simple file sharing storage for a 4-user law office and runs Retrospect (version 8.1.626) to do some local and network backup operations. At the time it was setup, it was also running Now Up-to-Date Server but that program is no longer supported, and it has been removed from the computer (May 31, 2010). In late March 2010, I installed Daylite Server as a replacement for Now Up-to-Date. All stations are running Mac OS X 10.6.4, and have always been at the most recent Mac OS X 10.6.x revision within a few days of the release of a major update.
PROBLEM: Occasionally, clients cannot connect to the server (and I don't have the exact error message -- next time it happens, someone is supposed to get a screenshot). When this happens, if you go to the server and open the file sharing control panel, then click "options", you will see an impossible number of people are connected. The first time this happened was on April 28, 2010, when it reported 41 users were connected. Mac OS X Client has an upper limit of 10 simultaneous user connections, so you can see this number is not possible. Additionally, these are "phantom" logins because you can execute this command in Terminal to see the IP addresses of any connected users:
netstat -n | grep '.548'
And when I do this, unless there was someone who had logged in prior to the "phantom explosion", it never shows any connections. On two occasions, I've actually been in the office late one night to do maintenance, checked the server before I left and found 0 connected users, then got a call in the morning that the first person who attempted to connect was blocked and the server showed 10 or more users connected.
I do not believe this is some kind of security breach. The server is not Internet-accessible, and as is shown by the netstat command, there really isn't anyone logged in anyway. I consulted with Marketcircle (makers of Daylite) because it seemed very coincidental that I installed their software just prior to the beginning of this problem, but they claim Daylite does not make any use of the Mac file sharing system. But, again, since these aren't real users, I suppose it's possible a bug in their software is somehow upping the Mac's connected user count erroneously?
Restarting the server always fixes the problem -- until it happens again. This Mac Mini is a pretty simple station -- just runs Daylite Server and Retrospect Single Server, plus the basic file sharing. Anyone have any ideas why this keeps happening?

I would say odds are likely this is correct. On at least two occasions I can think of where I verified everything was okay and later discovered a "phantom explosion", a Retrospect backup would have run. Our backups typically run at 3 AM. Is this a known issue with Retrospect? If so... not sure why it doesn't happen all the time. And in my own office I have a pretty similar setup on an entirely different computer that multiple people connect to, and it never does this. Color me confused.

How to send notification when too many users connected

Hi all !
I need to send a notification from my web container when there are over 100 users connected, does anybody know how to do it without using vendor's Api but just JEE Api ?
thanks

Hello,
If you create an object that implements javax.servlet.http.HttpSessionBindingListener,
you can define valueBound and valueUnbound methods. I usually call it a User class. Also you
can have a static int, counter, in this class, which is accessible by all
classes (make it public or create increment, decrement and getValue methods). In
the valueBound method, get it to increment the static int, in valueUnbound call
decrement).
Now in the JSP pages, at the top, check if the User object exists in the Session
scope. If it doesn't, create one and add it to the Session. This will
automatically call the valueBound on that object and increment the counter. When
a persons session expires, or the User object is removed from the session, the
valueUnbound is automatically called and the counter decrements.
I usually make this check a seperate JSP page which I include on all the other
pages. Then all you need to do is get the User.counter value at any time to see
how many people are on the system.
Hope it helps

Can't connect to Server - "too many users" after 10.8 install

After upgrading my Retina MBP, my Air, and my mid-2011 iMac (which acts as a file server) to Mountain Lion, I find I cannot consistently connect to the iMac server. Everything is done over an Airport Extreme wifi network, and there were no issues in 10.7. It usually happens 24-48 hours after a retstart, and a restart will fix it though that is inconvenient. The error given on the machine trying to connect in is "too many users" on the host (the iMac server). Any thoughts?

Me too... similar setup. MBPr, MBP and an old MB with a Mini/drobo as a file server. A reboot fixes it, but that's a pain if I'm not home.
I have noticed that I can usually share the screen even if I can't mount a drive, which helps, but still just another hurtle.

Too many authenticated connections

I've got a customer with a BT line, sending via mail.btinternet.com. For the last month or two they've complained that they keep getting asked for their password.
I've checked out the customer's system and I can see that it's not a password problem, but the SMTP server is instead coming back with "too many authenticated connections".
I can see that a host of BT customers on here are reporting password problems, I would guess that they are experiencing the same issue, that these are not password problems, but SMTP server issues on BT's new mail systems. The message would suggest that the server is unable to take any more connections so some sort of resource issue at their end.
Of-course unless you're looking under the bonnet of the SMTP connection, you won't be seeing this message, just the popup asking for your password again. It's not a password issue. If you try the connection multiple times, it will go in the end (when you get a connection that is willing to be accepted by the SMTP server.
I've configured the mail client to the letter, as per BT's stated configuration, and like I say, it will work on a percentage of connections. On a good run, you might get 10 out of 10 successes, other times 1 in 3.
Please let me know if anyone is experiencing the same message. The message could perhaps be a red-herring of some kind, perhaps not able to successfully negotiate the authentication / encryption using this particular mail client. The customer is using Mac Mail and there do appear to be quite a few customers referencing Mac's / IOS on this forum, not many Outlook customers complaining.

Hi Bookanengineer,
Many thanks for your post, we have been away and asked some questions around this and the view is that this is unlikely to be an SMTP load issue. There is a limit to the number of authenticated connections we allow per user and the password pop ups being seen are more likely to be due to the customer having too many authenticated connections which could also be due to sessions not being closed correctly
We believe that this is more likely to happen to client users as each time your client connects it opens an authenticated session. If, when you disconnect, the session does not close for whatever reason, the mail server still shows you with a session open. If that happens often you will quickly hit the limit for the number of sessions allowed per customer
We do however need to eliminate other issues so need examples to further investigate, I appreciate that you are speaking on behalf of one of your customers, but if you are able to send in any details to us so we can take a look that would be great. You can send in the details using the "Contact The Mods" link found in my profile.

Livecache issue LC10 BY0 Too many users (task limit)

Hi,
we have 2 application servers with one CI/DB, maxusertasks is 500
we figured out a livecache pb, with the following error messages
(db analyzer)
LC10 BY0 > Too many users (task limit)
User task 281 blocked in stae 'Prep-End(230)' since 902s, DB procedure : SAPAPO_CLEANUP application pid

...User task 281 blocked in stae 'Prep-End(230)' since 902s, DB procedure : APS_ACT_SCHEDULE, pid 3168
before we had the warining: UTK5 is running 1804s, CPU 50% and CPU 100% (LC)
we have checked knldiag/knldiagerr files and we are unable to find what is the root cause of the problem?
How could we analyse this issue and find the treatment which triggers this issue?
(trace: (SAPAPO/OM01)
Thanks and Best regards,
any help would be rewarded.
Best regards,
John

Hello John,
We need additional information about the liveCache version, OS of the liveCache server; more details about situation when the issue occurred. Run "x_cons <SID> sh all 10 10 > task_info.txt" when the issue occurred to collect more information.
Check if the savepoint task is active - "x_cons <SID> show active".
Is the issue occurred during high loading to te liveCache?
Please review the SAP note 1391322 where the SPORADIC standstill in high load situation is also described, this issue is already fixed in the new liveCache releases.
This situation occured sporadically. It will be helpful to login to your system for further analysis of the reported issue to get clear if your system run into this known problem because the savepoint was hanging, because of that you had big amount of the user tasks which were hours in the state 'Prep-End' until the liveCache restart.
< It could be the reason for "livecache issue LC10 BY0 > Too many users (task limit)", you reached the MAXUSERTASKS limit,
the increasing of the liveCache parameter will not help you to solve the issue. >
You checked/saw the Database Analyzer log :
"User task 281 blocked in stae 'Prep-End(230)' since 902s, DB procedure : SAPAPO_CLEANUP application pid
User task 281 blocked in stae 'Prep-End(230)' since 902s, DB procedure : SIM_SIMSESSION_CONTROL, pid 31685
...User task 281 blocked in stae 'Prep-End(230)' since 902s, DB procedure : APS_ACT_SCHEDULE, pid 3168
You are SAP customer. As already recommended by Ivan, create the SAP message to the component "BC-DB-LVC" and get SAP support.
Thank you and best regards, Natalia Khlopina

Personal File Sharing Quites when trying to connect

Everytime I try to connect from another mac to my G5 the personal file sharing unchecks and blocks the connection. Firewall is off.

Okay I did it and then repaired permissions and this is what it changed:
group is 501
Owner and group corrected on ./Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration/preferences.plist
Permissions corrected on ./Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration/preferences.plist
User differs on ./Library/Preferences/com.apple.ByteRangeLocking.plist, should be 0, owner is 501
Permissions differ on ./Library/Preferences/com.apple.ByteRangeLocking.plist, should be -rw-rw-r-- , they are -rwxrwxrwx
Owner and group corrected on ./Library/Preferences/com.apple.ByteRangeLocking.plist
Permissions corrected on ./Library/Preferences/com.apple.ByteRangeLocking.plist
The privileges have been verified or repaired on the selected volume
It only did stuff on that file and the -rw-rw stuff is that read write? because i don't want it changing that?

Thunderbird supports disconnected or offline operation. It can disconnect from the server and then reconnect later
and synchronize its state, so that you never know it was disconnected.
You can do that too, but it's a lot of work.
For webmail, the simplest approach is usually to have only one folder open at a time for each user.
If your IMAP server is limiting you to 10 connections total, across all users, get a new IMAP server.

Too many database connections and configurator logins ?

Hi,
We're having some performance and/or stability problem with Oracle Waveset 8.1.1. patch 2.
I'm not sure what the problems is yet, but two facts got my attention:
I noticed for too many database connections waiting to be closed on the OS, varying between 600 and 1200 :
TCP: IPv4
Local Address Remote Address Swind Send-Q Rwind Recv-Q State
doesburg.ic.uva.nl.33555 hopewell.ic.uva.nl.1539 49640 0 49640 0 TIME_WAIT

doesburg.ic.uva.nl.33558 hopewell.ic.uva.nl.1539 49640 0 49640 0 TIME_WAIT
etc.
(doesburg is our Solaris 10 server where the tomcat application server is installed, hopewell is our Oracle 10g database server )
I also noticed numerous Configurator logins in the audit log, about 10 per second:
Audit Event Details

Configurator logins on the BPE interface which we don't use?
Has anyone seen something like this before? What could cause it?

Outlook Express timing out when many users connecting

I have a 10.5 xserve running imap for a company with many locations across the US. At many of these locations that have 5 or 6 people - the last person to open Outlook Express cannot connect to imap. It times out. There is no error on the server in any of the logs - it just never connects. If you close one of the other users out at that location then the previous machine starts working. It's almost like there are too many connections from the 1 ip of that location and cyrus starts denying more. It is becoming a problem.
Is Outlook Express opening way too many imap connections per user? Would Outlook be better? Is there a way to tell cyrus to allow more connections? (Currently in serveradmin I have no limit set)

Thanks for your quick reply!
I neglected to mention I'm running FF 24.0 on a Mac 10.9 Mavericks system. There was not a Tools -> Options choice on the menu, but I did find it on the Preferences panel, on the Advanced tab (see image 1).
I made the auto-detect selection as you advised and restarted FF. After navigating to a video I once again received the error message (see image 2).
So either I did something wrong (possible but I don't think so; I double-checked the setting after the restart and it is set to auto detect) or the problem lay elsewhere.
Anything else come to mind?

The list you saw that shows what drivers are available from Apple Software Update is based on what drivers are supplied by the vendor to Apple. So it would appear that HP has not provided Apple with a scanner driver for 10.9 (known as an ICA driver), or provided an update if one was available for a previous version of OS X, so that you can scan from Image Capture.
I checked the HP web site for your model and they don't show any scanner driver or scanning software. If there was a scanner driver, you would be able to use Vuescan.
As for the Scan button not working, the following is documented by HP
Scanning to the computer from the printer control panel is not available when you scan with Preview, Image Capture, or Printer browser methods. You must use HP Scan software to scan from the printer.
But there does not appear to be any version of HP Scan software available for 10.9. So unless someone else has some workaround, it seems that you won't be able to scan with this model of HP.

UTL_MAIL --- ORA-30678: too many open connections

Hello,
I have a pl/sql package that sends out emails using UTL_MAIL pkg pointing to an Exchange server, an APEX app calls this pkg.. This package used to work fine for months but I recently noticed that some emails are not being sent as expected. The package loops through a set of action items satisfying some conditions and send emails based on that ( this number is expected to grow every day ). I checked the errors log and I found this error:
ORA-30678: too many open connections
I think this means that I have to close the connection everytime I send en email, but UTL_MAIL does NOT have a function or a proc to close connections, right ?
I don't know what causes this error to happen, but I suspect that this started happening right after we re-pointed the UTL_MAIL pkg from a Lotus Notes server to an Exchange server.
I am also seeing this error:
ORA-29279: SMTP permanent error: 501 5.1.3 Invalid address
I know where this error comes from (usually a null email id in the FROM or TO field ), but can this be causing the first error to happen ?
Please advise if you got this error before, is it a bug in oracle 10g as I read in some blog ? or is the second error happening make the Exchange server refuse SMTP connections ???
Thanks,
Sam

Hi Sam,
seems to be a bug in UTL_MAIL if you ask me, as you are right - there is only /send/, no option to close, so I'd expect this to be done automatically.
Anyway, though UTL_MAIL is usable for basic mailing, I prefer using a custom mail implementation based on UTL_SMTP. The most important reason is that most mail servers don't work without authentication. And if you have done this once, you can reuse the function/procedure/package as simple as UTL_MAIL. The good news is, that there are several examples published that provide you with the functionality you have in UTL_MAIL at once - with the difference, that you definetly get your connection closed when you expect it to be closed.
You'll also be able to handle empty addresses. Perhaps this error actually causes UTL_MAIL to "forget" to close the connection, if this exception isn't caught before in order to close an open connection before raising it to the outside.
One example implementation for using UTL_SMTP can be found [url http://www.morganslibrary.com/reference/pkgs/utl_smtp.html]here

SMTP Send Mail - too many authenticated connection...

Using Outlook on a MAC, and within this last week I have started to get this error when sending mail. I have read all the forum posts and help documents on this issue and ensured that my settings are as described and yet I am still having this problem.
Should I be switching to IMAP to avoid this problem, and if so how do I do that without losing all my SMTP downloaded email?
Thanks for any insight - it is causing me real issues now as I'm job hunting and can't reply to job emails!!!!

Yes same problem for me. In the last three days, or so, I will get the random "too many authenticated connections" message. I have just phoned BT twice this afternoon and had great trouble understanding both Indian guys. One suggested he's fixed it by adjusting things at BT to accept "S Client Mail", whatever that means! That however didn't fix it. The second suggested I needed to reset password (easy option that one), until I pointed out that I am having no trouble with password use on the BT webmail page or through my phone. He then said I'd have to reload Outlook to solve the problem. Yeah right, like I'm gonna loose all my emails, settings and calendar to satisfy his theory of "if it doesn't work then reload it". There is clearly a server problem somewhere and OH, how I would love to speak to someone, (anyone), at BT who actually knows what they are talking about from a network/server angle. Anyone worth their salary in networks could trace my activity online and find out what was going on and why it was failing.
Setting POP3 and all others checked by BT as being correct.

ORA-30678: too many open connections with UTL_MAIL.send

I'm have just recently started getting the ORA-30678: too many open connections error while calling the UTL_MAIL.send procedure to send emails via a pl/sql package. The call is made within a loop and there can be a significant number of calls made to this procedure. In fact, I received this error over 1400 times within the last three days. This was previously working until I made a change to the processing which now results in a larger number of emails/calls to this procedure. I don't see any documentation on how (or if) I can close the connection with UTL_MAIL.
I'm using Oracle 11g. Any insight would be much appreciated.
Thanks,
Teri

Looks like a bug possibly, check out this MOS Note:

The bug note says it was fixed in 11.2. Not sure which version of 11 you are running.
