Hello folks,

during the apache2 upgrade from squeeze to wheezy I got the following
message: "usr/sbin/apache2ctl: line 87: ulimit: open files: cannot 
modify
limit: Operation not permitted". This happens because the environment of
this server does not allow to set a ulimit (it is a virtualized server).
Because there are many vserver-hosts out there and since the message
apparently shows up on every apache2 restart, I think the default 
behavior
should be changed to not set the ulimit by default.

My temporary dirty workaround is to change /etc/apache2/envvars to
APACHE_ULIMIT_MAX_FILES='sleep 0.01'

Regards, Kiro
