485                                    Usually LS gives you a meaningful error message in case it
486                                    failed to load an instrument. However there might be rare
487                                    cases where LS cannot resolve the reason and you get an
488                                    error message like above. In this case make sure security /
489                                    user limits aren't set too low. You can list your current
490                                    limits with:
491                            </p>
492                            <pre class="code">ulimit -a</pre>
493                            <p class="default">
494                                    Usually most of those settings are set to "unlimited" on
495                                    most boxes. If this is not the case on yours, make sure that
496                                    at least the limits for "max locked memory", "virtual
497                                    memory" and "data seg size" are sufficiently high enough.
498                                    The exact value depends on the instruments you want to load.
499                                    If your security policy allows it, you could simply set
500                                    those limits to "unlimited" (see also config file
501                                    /etc/security/limits.conf and
502                                    <a href="https://bugs.linuxsampler.org/cgi-bin/show_bug.cgi?id=41">bug report #41</a>).
