[asterisk-users] Getting Ulimit Message after restart asterisk service

[Danny Nicholas]

The good folks at Asterisk wish to limit the number of open files used by
Asterisk to 32K (see line 32).  If you aren't a super-user, chances are that
Linux will cut you off at a number much less than that anyway.  The reason
you are getting the message;  your user/sudo user can't execute ulimit.

Thanks Danny,

I would like to know do I need to worry about this message? And why I'm
getting this ulimit message? Please provide reason briefly

This one is simple.  Open /usr/sbin/safe_asterisk and put # in first
character of line 86 and 102.  Or modfy /etc/sudoers to allow your sudo to
execute ulimit.

Hi all,

Currently I'm getting this message after restarting asterisk service;

 Starting asterisk: /usr/sbin/safe_asterisk: line 86: ulimit: open files:
cannot modify limit: Operation not permitted

Before when I had root access I was not facing this message after that
system administrator assigned me sudo access for restarting asterisk
service.

Please assist me out to resolve this issue at earliest. I also tried to set
ulimit till 4-40 times higher than currently set i.e. 1024 but still giving
me same message.
