I realize Automations are being deprecated and am working on replacing them, however, there are several automations still in use in my apps. That being said, automations that were working previously are now giving me errors or not functioning correctly. The one error I have seen a few times recently is: SocketException: Too many open files: Loop Index: 2; Failed on Step: Add a record (ID: step_30067550df4111ebbfde2322ce54d66d);What is the root cause of this error and why is it suddenly appearing?------------------------------Paul Peterson------------------------------

I reported a flurry of three yesterday. Different Apps and Realms------------------------------Mark Shnier (YQC)mark.shnier@gmail.com------------------------------

You would need to put in a support ticket. I saw a lot of Automation failures starting late yesterday.------------------------------Mark Shnier (YQC)mark.shnier@gmail.com------------------------------

I also had a lot of automations failing late yesterday. I put in a ticket and they said they were investigating the issue. No further word yet though.------------------------------Michael Tamoush------------------------------

The issue has been resolved.https://service.quickbase.com/#!/incident/247422------------------------------Michael Tamoush------------------------------

I haven't seen any more automation errors, but now that I'm working out replacing automations with pipelines I'm noticing the huge lag times. I had one simple pipeline that took over 10 minutes to update two fields in a record.------------------------------Paul Peterson------------------------------

I have been seeing the same automation failure for several days now. Interesting to see that this is happening across the platform and not just my application.

  Brett,
  
  Thank you for making this post or I would not have realized it is a larger problem. Below are the three errors we have seen so far.
  
  The automation had the following problem at 21:20 (UTC) on AUG 18, 2021 :
  
  FileNotFoundException: /usr/local/tomcat/webapps/we/WEB-INF/lib/maven-artifact-3.0.5.jar (Too many open files)
  
  The automation had the following problem at 22:45 (UTC) on AUG 18, 2021 :
  
  There was a problem triggering your automation. This could be because of a problem with your automation, an internal system error, or due to it being disabled. Please check the automation setup and, if it is disabled, please review your trigger criteria and wait 30 minutes before re-enabling it.

    I saw a few errors like this yesterday (across different Realms) and reported them but so far today has been clean. :)
