hi, keep the discussion on the list, so others could profit or contribute...;-) sorry, but I have no idea how to built python with large-file-support on windows! the RPMs won't work because they are compiled for linux. -mj WONG,KAI-WEE (Non-HP-Singapore,ex5) wrote:

hi,

the linux-binary-zope-distro does not have the large-file-support built in the python-interpreter [hit me if I'm wrong]. you should use the RPMs for python2.1 from python.org and a Zope-Source-Installation. This should work.

greetings again, maik

Hi Maik,

Thanks for the reply and it is a pleasure to know you. Actually, I am packing the ZODB every week.

If I install Zope 2.5.1 in Linux, will it automatically install the correct python-interpreter that support large file ??

Anyway, can I say that there is no way to solve this 2GB problem in

Windows.

...

Please reply. Thank you.

Cheers, Wong Kai Wee

hi,

you should pack your database first. Enter the "Control_Panel/Database" and click on "Pack". This will remove old transactions/histories/undos out of your ZODB.

Linux supports more than 2GB ZODBs if you use a correct [with-large-file-support] compiled python-interpreter.
