I had the same problem run.log "accept failed for connection to signalk: Too many open files"
I think it has to do with kplex.
If I attach a gps to kplex it needs 8 open files all the time.
If I now disconnect the gps and reboot. Every half minute it adds 1 open file untill the limit of the linux system is reached. Then SignalK fires errors until the disk is full.
To test it: Find the pid of kplex
"ps aux | grep kplex"
print out the counted open files of the pid (replace pid with the process number you got from last command) with
"ls /proc/pid/fd/ | wc -l"
