Hello
We are using asterisk
LibPRI 1.4.11.5
Installed DAHDI 2.4.1.
Installed Asterisk 1.6.2.17.2.
Ubuntu 10.04
We have a SIP trunk setup that goes to a NEC PBX. Every several weeks the system crashes and needs to be restarted, They can not make or recieve calls.
When we look into the logs we see the following.
Got SIP response 503 “Service Unavailable” back from 172.31.80.9
– SIP/trunk-000001cb is circuit-busy
== Everyone is busy/congested at this time (1:0/1/0)
– Auto fallthrough, channel ‘SIP/trunk-000001ca’ status is ‘CONGESTION’
Then we see
[Jun 14 14:23:35] WARNING[926]: rtp.c:2491 rtp_socket: Unable to allocate RTCP socket: Too many open files
== Using SIP RTP CoS mark 5

[Jun 14 14:23:35] NOTICE[926]: chan_sip.c:20354 handle_request_invite: Unable to create/find SIP channel for this INVITE
Finally we see the following
[Jun 14 14:36:42] WARNING[798]: asterisk.c:1280 listener: Accept returned -1: Too many open files
[Jun 14 14:36:42] WARNING[798]: asterisk.c:1280 listener: Accept returned -1: Too many open files

[Jun 14 14:36:42] WARNING[798]: asterisk.c:1280 listener: Accept returned -1: Too many open files
This message repeats itself thousands of times.
Any ideas what could be causing the problem?
Rebooting the server fixes the problem however it comes back around every 3 weeks.
