Hi, First,the 2 Gig Limit is a problem with 32 bit systems because of the signed int offset,which gives you an upper limit of 2^31 -1 bytes. But,you can check if your system supports higher file sizes. For example,a 'ulimit -f` on my RHL 6.2,printed 'unlimited'. I presume I should be able to create 2 GIG files and access them successfully.Anyway you can also alternatively check the /etc/login.defs file for any ULIMIT Definitions. Bye, A.R.KARTHICK (A.R.K)
OK, I'm sorry if this question is gonna prompt bursts of laughter, but here it goes :-)
If I intend to store many files (and large ones, too) into Zope (on RHL7, BTW) - something close to a few GBs, it would mean that Zope's database will get to be one several-gigs-large file. Someone warned me of possible problems if using very large files under linux. The question is: was he right ? How does Zope cope with that ?
Thanks !
