Q about "Xlib: Maximum number of clients reached"

2007-12-25 11:21:00

Thanks to

Danny O'Mahony <domahony@csc.com>

most of whom pointed me to the archives (or quoted therefrom)

which can be summarized thusly:

There is a hard limit of 128 X clients for a given Xserver

display. This means that the Solaris Xserver can only handle

128 clients being displayed on it.

Thanks to everyone for the quick response!

My original query follows:

> I have a developer who is testing some code. His code runs on a

> bunch of different machines, each of which opens some kind of

> window back to his workstation. This all works fine until things

> screech to a halt with this error:

> Xlib: connection to "rds023:0.0" refused by server

> Xlib: Maximum number of clients reached

> Error: couldn't connect to display "rds023:0"

> I don't even know where to go to figure this one out.

> Any suggestions or pointers?

I don't speak for Goodyear and they don't speak for me. We're both happy.
