Hi there,

I am getting warnings in error.log; "[warn] 23770#0: 4096 worker_connections are more than open file resource limit: 1024"

I did raised "nginx" user open files limit via ulimit; "[root@proxy ~]# runuser nginx -c "ulimit -n" 40960"

As you think it didn't worked, then I increased open files for "root" to 40960, the problem has gone. But if I start nginx via an init script I get the errors again (as expected).

1) So, must I set ulimit values in init script? Is this right? 2) nginx runs with user "nginx" that limits setted high via /etc/security/limits.conf , does root's limits effects the nginx processes? If so, may I safely ignore this warning?
