Well, this means something has more files open than are configured in the kernel :-). It may not be minidlna, but if you have ssh access you can see what minidlna has open by:
ps -C minidlna
to get the pid and then:
ls -l /proc/<PID>/fd
This will list all the open files by minidlna (which is the readydlna server on my system). Its possible on the new os, they may have changed the name of that process. My minidlna which is idle has 115 open (probably a dozen dlna clients in my house counting pc's, tv's, etc). You could check the other processes you have installed as addons to find the one using so many file handles.
Also, ulimit -n will tell you how many your system can have open. On my pro 6 running 4.2.24, ulimit -n shows 1024.
