Cockos Incorporated Forums - View Single Post - Attention Developers : Reaper crashes when opening 2 project tabs

Hmmm.

OK so I'm adding a new reaper.ini setting for 5.980rc2, which is (in the REAPER section):

Code:

osx_max_open_files=

You can specify a hardcoded value like:

Code:

osx_max_open_files=40000

or

Code:

osx_max_open_files=256000

And you can append a "v" to make it throw a messagebox up at startup to show you status, e.g.

Code:

osx_max_open_files=40000v

You can also use "a" as a value and it will try to autodetect (by trial and error) what the maximum value supported is.

Code:

osx_max_open_files=av

(remove the v if you decide you don't want to know).

So maybe try rc2 with osx_max_open_files=av, and try with something like:

Code:

sudo launchctl limit maxfiles 150000 250000

Also when you say "too many open files opened error", can you show me what that looks like?
