Re: Microsoft Office - too many files open



It seems now that it doesn't matter whether it is SMB or AFP (at least AFP Unix mounts)... Word has been giving spurious messages with the latter for a long time.

Just in terms of 'normal' file sharing', we used to use NetaTalk mounts of Unix volumes, but moved to SMB mounts when a combination of 'Too many file open'... 'Not enough memory to complete task', etc. messages started to become more than the occasional joke.

At least for us, SMB mounts currently seem to be more reliable.


By any chance, are your home directories on a SMB share?

 We are seeing alot of these messages, "Too many files Open", while
 using Microsoft word on our network.  Didn't notice it with 10.3
 server/client but now it comes up regularly with 10.4.2 client/server.

 The window pops up regularly while using Word.  Doesn't seem to cause
 any problems but gets quite annoying.

 Google returns many complaints about this but I was wondering if
 anyone on the list has seen it or found a solution.
