It's one that was written by Darien and modified by me, but basically it's a fopen/fclose tracker. It's pretty easy to implement if you have access to anything like VS where you can do a find and replace in all files of the fopen/fclose calls. [/quote]That looks promising. I will implement that and see what turns up. Thanks for the link.

I guess all that remains is to go through the code and find where someone hasn't closed a file. EDIT: 200+ structure files were being opened and not closed. Modifying the code rectified the problem. Caius, do you know if there is a way to print the number of files currently open via gdb or possibly another command in the shell? https://smaugmuds.afkmods.com/topic/too-many-open-files-4355/&p=20292#p20292 Sun, 28 Feb 2010 10:13:15 CST SWR FUSS nobody@example.com (Banner) https://smaugmuds.afkmods.com/topic/too-many-open-files-4355/&p=20291#p20291 Sounds to me that you're opening a whole bunch of files somewhere without closing them. If I remember correctly a Linux OS typically allow up to 1024 files being open at once per process. Hitting such a number could suggest that you open files in a loop somewhere without closing them. Only thing I can think of. Oh, and did you get those other bugs as well before? I mean the "Cannot open ../structures/realty.dat" ones. https://smaugmuds.afkmods.com/topic/too-many-open-files-4355/&p=20291#p20291 Sun, 28 Feb 2010 09:24:27 CST SWR FUSS nobody@example.com (Caius) https://smaugmuds.afkmods.com/topic/too-many-open-files-4355/&p=20290#p20290 After hotbooting exactly four times, I receive this error. I've never received it before so I believe it may have something to do with something I changed involving loading from files.
