(mount options ?) To prove to yourself that your filesystem supports files larger than 2G, do the following: # cd <directory where you have problems> # dd if=/dev/zero of=foo.bar bs=1000K count=3000 # ls -lh foo.bar Now that you've seen that your log file could be larger than 2GB with a well-written application, it's time to have another look at the application itself and see why it's breaking. > On the debian system the same application ran quite happily with logfiles > >2G That's interesting... perhaps the application libraries are different? Dunno, I'm not a programmer and have never run debian before either. -- Ed Wilts, RHCE Mounds View, MN, USA mailto:ewilts@xxxxxxxxxx Member #1, Red Hat Community Ambassador Program -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:redhat-list-request@xxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
