Take the suggestion even less than a grain of sugar
Actually it's a good idea to look what's in that file (reading it should be possible for ordinary users), and what "ulimit -n" prints. This should be possible from a CGI script, without ssh access.
If the number is something like 1024, we can be almost sure that there is a programming mistake in the OP's scripts. However, if the provider chose to lower that number to something like 10 (to prevent excessive use of resources), the web software might need some restructuring to make sure that file handles (including sockets) are never open longer than necessary.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
