error : QProcessPrivate::createPipe: Cannot create pipe 0x2ed031ac: Too many open files

SGaist

In your slot you have an infinite loop that is creating indefinitely QProcess objects that execute the sysConfig.sh script but you never check whether something went wrong with it.

What does that script do ? How do you know it executed successfully ? Does it close everything it has opened ?

sachin786

these script is use for calling other php files
i have put the debug line for know my script is executed successfully in terminal
and everything is closed properly

SGaist

Also from the PHP files ?

sachin786

yes i have check also in php files that are called in my code everything is ok but still get the same issue after some time get the above error again n agian and finger print module stop working...

my doubt :: if something was missing about closing file then error must appeared early, above error i get after 4-5 hours application run.

SGaist

How are you accessing that reader ?

What does your PHP scripts do ?

sachin786

i am using CAMA SM20 finger print module communicating via UART communication.
in my application there are 2 diffrent threads for php and fingerprint module.
fingerprint module thread does some stuff like collecting data and storing in file.
and php thread include some php script to read text file and uploading to server using webserice. (the text file php read is actually created and update by fingerprint module on run time)

SGaist

Can you share the code you use for the serial port communication ?

One thing you can do is use lsof to see what files are being constantly opened and by what.

Is it me or does your application open /dev/ttymxc2 very often ?

How do you open that device file ?

sachin786

No, in my application i called following function multiple time.
fpSetup();//  /dev/ttymxc2 open oftenly

Why not use QSerialPort ?

In any case, I don't see any call to close the file descriptor after use.

sachin786

@SGaist ok i will check that file and get back to u...and i am using QT creator 4.8.5 and in that there is no proper documentation for Qserialport thats why i am using normal serial port terminal available in ubuntu 12.04.

SGaist

You'll have to build the module yourself (there's a Qt 4 dedicated branch) but otherwise. The documentation is the same.

sachin786

@SGaist :: as far now problem is get fixed and my application running fine. as you help me to point out i am not closing file descriptor, i fix this by simply closing file descriptor and keeping track that no device peripheral left open more than once, at the moment i am using with regular serial port communication, thanx for all your suggestion it really help me alot.
once i finish this application surely i will try to work with QSerialPort :) Thank you once again and have great day ☺

sachin786

hello @SGaist ...following issue is occured while running the application and by this the finger print module get off

after some time(2 to 3 hour) it shoots this error...

SGaist

There's a faulty module doing something wrong.

sachin786

the module is working properly for 4 hours or 5 hour then automatically turned off and in serial port terminal show above mention output...
