IPFS error "flatfs: too many open files"
If you have followed my previous tutorial on how to batch import your pinned files, you could have easily incurred on this "flatfs: too many open files" error. Here a practical solution for your Linux OS: Enter the following folder as superuser via your editor of preference, I'm using nano:
sudo nano /etc/security/limits.conf
add these 2 lines at the end of the file: . . . * hard nofile 4096 * soft nofile 40960 # End of file
Log out and log in again > retry =) 4096 and 40960 should be enough, just in case you can always augment these values! ^^
Thank You for reading!
