Description:
------------
I am getting a "failed to open stream: Too many open files in Unknown on line 0" error message.

I check similar bug reports but none seemed to apply.  I already am running 4.3.3 where this error was supposed to be fixed.  

My config is Solaris 8, Apache 2.0.44, PHP 4.3.3.

My page pulls some simple snmp data and I have a META refresh tag at the top  that refreshes the page every 30 seconds.  99% of the time the page is ok.  Every now and then the error below shows.  It goes away on its own usually by the next refresh.

Actual result:
--------------
Warning: Unknown(/isp/www/pntsi/stats/snmp.php): failed to open stream: Too many open files in Unknown on line 0

Warning: (null)(): Failed opening '/isp/www/pntsi/stats/snmp.php' for inclusion (include_path='.:/usr/local/php4/lib/php') in Unknown on line 0

What is your open files limit set to?  
 
Do 'ulimit -a' from a shell -- chances are it's set to 
256. Try increasing that to 1024 by opening up /etc/system 
as root and making changes to rlim_fd_cur and rlim_fd_max. 
Just don't go higher than 1024.   
 
You'll have to reboot your server (the actual machine, not 
just the web server) for the changes to take effect.  
 
See 'man -s 4 system' for details.
