@james Hi. Sorry, i didn't go ahead with PocketBase after this. So, can't say what's that current status.

[nebulon]

Looks like something in the app is using up too many file descriptors, as from the logs: "panic: registerHooks: too many open files"

I would suggest to wait for a stable package release in this case.

[girish]

It seems to work on the demo cloudron and also on my test servers.

https://github.com/pocketbase/pocketbase/discussions/3703 is an upstream report which suggests changing host's ulimit .

[shrey]

@girish Hi. Is this something that needs to configured on my end?

[girish]

Can you check ulimit -a output? (or I think ulimit -n) . I have 1024 for open files in my server and pocketbase runs fine here...

[shrey]

@girish

root@apps:~# ulimit -n
1048576

[girish]

@shrey thanks. can you also check docker inspect <containerid> --format='{{json .HostConfig.Ulimits}}' . The containerid you can get from docker ps . The limit you posted above seems plenty. Maybe we have to ask this upstream since the error itself comes from the app.

[avatar1024]

@shrey did you try to reboot your server?

[shrey]

@girish said in App not starting:

docker inspect <containerid> --format='{{json .HostConfig.Ulimits}}'

"Ulimits": null

[shrey]

@avatar1024 Since i've installed the app, yes...have rebooted Cloudron once.

[james]

@shrey can this topic be marked as solved?
