Thanks very much -- this helped me narrow down the problem. Things are working correctly now.

are you sure you're using the python that comes with Zope? You might be getting this error because you're using the Python that comes with RedHat.

To check if the Python version your using has large file support enabled, start the intepreter and open a file [ f=open('temp', 'w') ] and call [ f.tell() ] it should return a long [ 0L ] if LFS i enabled. (otherwise it returns an integer [ 0 ]) Regards, Johan Carlsson

I am running Zope 2.6 on RedHat Linux version 7.2, kernel version 2.4.7-10 and, in case it matters, glibc-2.2.4-13. According to the documents that I have been reading online, the binary distribution of Zope 2.6 should have large file support built in and should work on my current configuration.
However, I am unable to open a 2GB+ Data.fs file either with Zope or by typing in "open('Data.fs')" from the python interpreter (using /zope/bin/python). I routinely get a "file too large" error.
Does anyone have any ideas as to why this might be happening?
Thanks,
Kevin
