Error response from daemon: too many open files

But I couldn\'t find any information abo

Answer 1

Default limit of number of open files is 1024. You can increase it in two ways:

1. Run the container with --ulimit parameter:

   docker run --ulimit nofile=5000:5000 <image-tag>
   

2. Run the container with --privileged mode and execute ulimit -n 5000.
