I seem to be getting the following error quite often, I am running on a mac mini without anything really running.  this has only happened with the two most recent versions of Emby

I'm experiencing "too many files open as well" this happens when scanning for metadata in large directories +3000 items:

I searched on the web to find a cause or better yet a fix and got this (I'm on linux):

 

 

Too many open files

This error can occur on some Linux systems when using the embedded Derby database. Derby opens several file handles and may run over the maximum limit set by the system.

The solution is to increase the limit. The exact procedure varies from one Linux distribution to the next. The procedure below works on Ubuntu. For other systems, see Too many open files.

To set a system wide limit for open files on Ubuntu Linux:

  1. Find the current maximum number of open files per user in a single session: 
    ulimit -n 
    By default the number is 1024 which is too small.
  2. Edit the limits.conf file: 
    sudo gedit /etc/security/limits.conf
  3. Add the following lines to the file: 
    * soft nofile 10000 
    * hard nofile 50000 
    This sets for all users a soft limit of 10000 open files and a hard limit of 50000. These are just example numbers. Set them according to your system needs. Note that the wildcard option applies only to regular users, not to superuser. If you run Magnolia CMS as superuser replace the asterisk with root.
  4. Save the file.
  5. Edit the configuration file for session-related modules: 
    sudo gedit /etc/pam.d/common-session
  6. Add the following line to the file: 
    session required pam_limits.so
  7. Save the file.
  8. Restart Ubuntu.
  9. Verify the new maximum number of open files: 
    ulimit -n 
    The command should now return 10000.

 

 

As I understood the danger with too many open files is that your system might become unresponsive due to processing locking & clocking things up. So I will give it a try and see what happens.

I don't, so I checked out 'ulimit' and all its respective flags/settings and changed it as above (btw rather than rebooting you can use 'sysctl -p' to make changes effective). This seems to have fixed the problem for me, at least the scan and metadata recognition didn't fail and ran until it was complete.
