Rabbitmw server starts with 0 socket limit

[Yogesh Nautiyal]

I am facing intermittent issue, where rabbitmw server starts with 0 socket limit.

# sbin/rabbitmqctl status

..

.

 {file_descriptors,[{total_limit,2},

                    {total_used,1},

                    {sockets_limit,0},

                    {sockets_used,0}]},

This cause producer  and consumers to fail.

Can someone tell whats going wrong on my system?
