I did this with both, the current 17.04.2 and this Git build: https://commits.kde.org/kate/72e8bd3dcc27a5216003693ceb8fe4d5f7b02ca3 Solved: Before i submitted this issue, is the idea to reduce the number of files unrevealed as successful. I ask here with, to display a clean error in the GUI. (there is one in the command line, when i start Kate from there) This issue drove my crazy today for a full hour. Thanks in advance
Thanks for the report. I'm not totally sure what you are after.... What error message are you referring to? Is it about failing to replace a string in a file?
It is all about crashing and leaving several hundred documents unsaved, edited and partly replaced. The error message is: (process:2874): GLib-ERROR **: Creating pipes for GWakeup: Too many open files
I think it happens maybe only, when i start Kate from fish.
Happens in bash too.
OK, The problem is that you run out of allowed open file handles. There is a limit for every process of how many files they can have open. https://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/linux-increase-the-maximum-number-of-open-files/ I got: ...$ ulimit -Hn 65536 ...$ ulimit -Sn 1024 You can temporarily increase the number of allowed open files, but adding a proper GUI indication is maybe not so trivial. What should we do about it when we reach that state? Just pop-up an error message or do something? This needs a bit of a discussion...
Matthias/Kåre was this ever resolved, can you please test and confirm if the issue still persists, thanks.
