One other question to ask is are you running the Admin tool on a workstation or on the server itself? Fred

I created a def file of a few dozen forms. Size of Def file: 116 MB. Max Size of tmp file in Windows/Temp: 113 MB+. (It may have gone away before refreshing to a higher value). So since I seriously doubt you have 10 GB worth of code, why are you getting a 10 GB temp file? Rick On 9/18/07, Shellman, David <[EMAIL PROTECTED] > wrote: ** Here's an update on the issue. The file size was 10 Gig and growing rapidly. The file was specifically tied to exporting workflow from the admin tool. As soon as we would cycle the service associated with the AR System the file would disappear. When I would start the export process, the file would appear. We just moved over to the Windows environment from SUN systems. I don't ever remember seeing anything like this on SUN. If the system would have been writing a file this large in system workspace, the SUN guys would have been all over me. I got a response from Support yesterday. It's working as designed. I haven't ever had the admin tool time out with server busy error with an export of workflow before. I also did not see (could have missed it some where) that exporting workflow would create a huge temporary file in a system temp directory. If we would have known this before we would have setup disk space much differently.
