aMule can't open file


Hello All,

I've installed aMule 2.0.0r7 and
I get following error messages all the time:
"Can't create backup of "541.part.met" error 24 too many files are open"
or some times
"Can't create backup of "541.part.met" error 2 no such file"
What can it be and how to solve this?

I have 904 file (90% of them in stopped state).

This is just a thought, but are you sure that the permissions haven't changed on the dir that you are downloading to since you started the downloads?

Please check the permissions for the temp directory.

Ok I've solved:

The problem is following:

I have too many opened files - when testing ulimit -a I've found that the limit is 1024 - when I have about 900 files in download it wasn't enough.

I've added to /etc/security/limits.conf

Code:
username          soft nofile 4096
username          hard nofile 4096
So if someone has same problem it is solution. After that worked well
