rlimit sets resource limits... in other words, something on the server is exceeding the maximum limits set by default.

Someone over quotas?

Have you checked to make sure you havent had visitors (ie: been hacked)?

What OS?

i'm on da 1.24.2
 
It might be a DA problem, but it might have something to do with your server configuration. I've never heard of or seen the problem myself, and the lack of response leads me to believe that no one here has, either.

It appears that DA's taskq is calling the setrlimit() method, which is called from cron every minute and which is why it's appearing in the errortaskq.log every minute.

Is the dataskq cron job running as root? That's the only reason I can think of that it would be not permitted. I don't know where the cron entries are for DA under RH9... under RHE, they're in /etc/cron.d/directadmin_cron and the line looks like:
* * * * * root /usr/local/directadmin/dataskq

I would recommend sending an email to [email protected].

i think dataskq is running as root. should it be running as something else?
