Hey guys,
Anthony was correct in this case, I ran freeswitch not from root, for some
reason my /etc/security/limits.conf file line:
* soft nproc 32768
* hard nproc 32768
was not propagated on freeswitch user...
Added new line:
freeswitch soft nproc 32768
freeswitch hard nproc 32768
and it worked fine from that.
Thanks to you all!
