Bolt driver for Python "ValueError: filedescriptor out of range in select()"

Yo.Ahiru · March 2, 2020, 10:41am

Hi all,

I would like to ask you about Neo4j filedescriptor ERROR.
It says "ValueError: filedescriptor out of range in select()" after some loads.
Its environment is as follows.

Server: Amazon AWS
OS: Amazon Linux 2
Neo4j version: Enterprise 3.5.8
Bolt driver: 1.7 for Python
Python: 3.7.4 and we use multiprocessing

With some load, an error occurs like followings.
I changed LimitNOFILE from 1024 to 60000.
And I changed neo4j.conf.

dbms.memory.heap.initial_size=23g
dbms.memory.heap.max_size=23g
dbms.memory.pagecache.size=27400m
dbms.connector.bolt.thread_pool_min_size=500
dbms.connector.bolt.thread_pool_max_size=10000
dbms.connector.bolt.thread_pool_keep_alive=15m

Usually I start the Neo4j as a console. ex) "sudo /bin/neo4j start"
Still I meet the ERROR.

Could you tell me what to do?

This seems to be related to certificates and encryption. Are you using valid certificates on server?

Can you disable encryption and see if it works first?

Hi Anthapu,

Thanks for your reply!
I am using two servers.
The other server says the following when " ValueError: filedescriptor out of range in select() " occurs.
Sorry, I should have written this log.

Then, I noticed that Zhen says "some function that goes over all connections on server every 4h and kill all idle connections" in the following.
Fatal error occurred when handling a client connection causes crash
Should I make those functions?
