[Chilli] net.c: 749: 9 (Bad file descriptor)

If you're mentioning bad file descriptors, possibly the OS simply ran out of
those
so it's unable to allocate anymore and hence the error message.

My suggestion would be to first check the status of that when this issue
occurs.
If that is the case it's easy enough to just set the value to a higher
limit.

Liran Tal.
