How to change the open-files-limit variable ?

[Spheerys]

Hi,

I have some errors during the mysql backups and after a search, I have found the solution : I have to change the value of the open-files-limit

Unfortunately, I don't now how to change this variable with the ispCP config !

Someone know ?

if you're running a virtual host check

Code:

cat /proc/user_beancounters

for numfile

Humm sorry, I'm not sure to understand...

The previous command doesn't work :

Code:

# cat /proc/user_beancounters
cat: /proc/user_beancounters: Aucun fichier ou répertoire de ce type

And I think I'm running a virtual host because I'm using ispCP on my server....

Do you mean the limit of unix/linux:
then read http://www.netadmintools.com/art295.html

or do you mean the limit in mysql only?
read the mysql-docu (links for partly grman docu):
