We have JIRA running on Linux. Recently, we ran into an issue with Too Many Files Open. We realised that the amount of File Handles specified for JIRA was too low so we updated the file: /etc/security/limits.conf and added an entry in it to quadruple the standard file handles.
However, after a reboot of the server, this has not taken effect. We are therefore looking to edit the JIRA start up scripts to add the appropriate commands in there to increase the uLimit for the JIRA instance.
We are not able to determine, though, were this start up script(s) is. Could you point us to them?
