On Linux, at least, compiling and installing Python 2.X with large file support can be accomplished via: export CC="gcc -D_LARGEFILE64_SOURCE -D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64" ./configure --prefix=/some/directory --with-thread; make; make install The Linux kernel and C libraries need to support large files for this to work. I have had success on both Debian Woody and Red Hat 7.2+ with this recipe. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Marc Lindahl" <marc@bowery.com> To: "Zope Org" <zope@zope.org> Sent: Sunday, September 08, 2002 6:54 PM Subject: Re: [Zope] LFS (large file support)
Actually, I don't believe it has ever been resolved. The python.org documentation is dismal on this subject, and there's just no place that ties this all together. The mailing lists are full of questions, noone seems to have done it, at least not that's written, e.g. a step-by-step howto. I've been tracking it for a while :(

Compiling Python with LFS support requires some configuration magic when running 'configure'. Please check the Python documentation (Python Library -> posixmodule I think) or the mailing list archives since this is an FAQ and has been resolved multiple times.

We're running out of luck
We need LFS (large file support) for the Data.fs file Upgraded to RH 7.3, ext3 filesystem, compiled our own python 2.1.3 and build zope 2.5.1 from source
Exported all sites from previous zope and imported in new zope to avoid conflict with existing Data.fs but no luck Everytime we want to go over the 2GB limit zope truncates the Data.fs
Did we mis some configuration settings?
TIA, R.
