Upgrade from 5.2.9 to 5.3.0 Limits Issue

Hi Support,

I am trying to upgrade my Nagios XI 5.2.9 version to 5.3.0, the installation process has installed and upgraded most components, but I get the following error:

Dashlets installed/updated OK

Attempting to read global hard/soft nofile limits failed. Check /etc/security/limits.conf and try again!

Hello,

This is an issue with some systems that don't allow us to update the file limits, which isn't necessary it's just a performance tweak.

It is safe to comment out line 834 in the upgrade script and then run it again. Since it looks like you successfully ran the DB portion, if you'd like to not get the DB errors, you can also comment out lines 820-828.

Thank you! I have successfully upgraded to 5.3.0.

I had to uncomment lines 820-828 & 834 for it to complete.
