fails with hugo extended about docsy-example HOT 11 CLOSED

@joe-getcouragenow would you be open to trying the workaround steps for resolving the "too many files open" error?

In Oct, I moved from a 2015 Macbook to a newer 2019 version and remember hitting that same pipe error when setting up my new machine. I don't think I did more than running the following commands to get past that error (which ive opened a PR for here google/docsy#410):

sudo launchctl limit maxfiles 65535 200000
ulimit -n 65535
sudo sysctl -w kern.maxfiles=100000
sudo sysctl -w kern.maxfilesperproc=65535

More context here: https://github.com/knative/website/blob/master/DEVELOPMENT.md#file-descriptors-in-server-mode

If this resolves this pipe error for you, we can update that PR.

YES this maxfiles script, fixes it on MAC :)

Thanks Richie!

That's odd. Have you tried just building and serving directly rather than via a makefile, just to check that it still doesn't work?

If it's still failing, it may be a Hugo issue - I found this blog post with a workaround that might help: https://akhromieiev.com/hugo-fatal-error-pipe-failed/

from docsy-example.

Also interesting that the people with similar issues I found seemed to be also building/serving on Mac OS.

I'll see if I can find out anything else as running with watch=false does mean you need to build the site every time you make a change. :(

These steps worked for me too!

Thanks.

Docs updated in google/docsy#410

I'm going to close this as we have a working workaround, do reopen if it's not working for everyone.

That works for me, thanks! But it seems I have to type it every time I re-launch my computer. Is there a way to set it up pernamently?
