Hi David, if you expect to get a big Data.fs because of a lots of upload of files and images, try the ExtFile zope product: http://www.zope.org/Members/MacGregor/ExtFile Regards, Michele On 16.12.2004, at 10:04, David Convent wrote:

Hi zope list,

I am installing a server with Zope2.7.3 and Python2.3.4, all from source. The Data.fs might get larger than 2Gb in a few months. Do I need to pass the large files compilation parameter when I install python 2.3.4, or it's not necessary anymore ?

Thx in advance,

You shouldn't need to pass that parameter on any "modern" OS. Here is how to test whether Python has largefile support: $ /path/to/bin/python /path/to/lib/python2.3/test/test_largefile.py If you see no errors in the output, you are golden.
