I have 4 virtual machines. They have exactly the same settings, except
port numbers. Only one is doing this. Writes messages to syslog like:
Feb 27 11:06:32 vm04 transmission-daemon: Couldn't create socket:
Protocol not supported (fdlimit.c:642)
Feb 27 11:09:20 vm04 transmission-daemon: Couldn't create socket:
Protocol not supported (fdlimit.c:642)
Feb 27 11:09:57 vm04 last message repeated 11 times
Feb 27 11:13:25 vm04 transmission-daemon: Couldn't create socket:
Protocol not supported (fdlimit.c:642)
and also the rpc part is not reachable. Usually when I try to connect to
the rpc port of transmission-daemon, I get "connection timed out" or
"connection reset by peer" messages. But sometimes (rarely) it works.
Some more information:
vm04# uname -a
FreeBSD vm04 7.2-STABLE FreeBSD 7.2-STABLE #2: Wed Nov 18 08:50:04 CET
2009 gandalf at vm04:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/DARKSUN amd64
vm04# sysctl kern.maxfiles
kern.maxfiles: 12328
vm04# sysctl kern.openfiles
kern.openfiles: 784
File uploads/downloads work as expected. Just I cannot monitor them,
cannot add new files, remove old ones etc. because the RPC interface is
not available.
Where should I look for the problem?
Thanks
Laszlo
