Error: ENFILE: file table overflow

casoetan commented 8 years ago

This is game changing, but I've not had the fun to try it out.

I installed the cli and followed the instructions, but

=> App running at: http://localhost:3000/
/User/me/meteor/packages/coffeescript/.1.2.4_1.12kaiqb++os+web.browser+web.cordova/plugin.compileCoffeescript.os/npm/node_modules/meteor/promise/node_modules/meteor-promise/promise_server.js:165
      throw error;
      ^

Error: ENFILE: file table overflow, scandir '/User/me/site/reaction/client/modules/i18n/templates/header'
    at Error (native)

Help needed.

Pretty sure this is an issue with the Node process monitoring too many open files at once. The default limits on OSX are quite low.

See this issue comment. That solution did the trick for me last time I had the issue.

And here's the blog post that the answer originally came from...

Let me know if that solves it for you.

@casoetan I think my first response is likely the cause/fix of your issue, so I'm going to close this for now. If you continue to have the issue after trying what I suggested, feel free to reopen this.

Thanks!
