http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=34241 Summary: tar task fails when fileset contains large file (>=2GB) Product: Ant Version: 1.6.2 Platform: HP OS/Version: Linux Status: NEW Severity: blocker Priority: P1 Component: Core tasks AssignedTo: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED] The following XML in build.xml, produces the error at the end of this description. A file that is 2.5GB large is in the path that the tar is working on. If an <exclude> element is created for the specific file, and all the rest of the files are <2GB, the tar succeeds. Ant 1.6.2 executing on RHAS 2.1 on HP intel hardware (DL380). Also, gnutar successfully builds this tar file. Trying to build an exec command to execute the guntar but the syntax escapes me. <target name="packvar" description="tar and gzip the var directory for install into other phases"> <echo message="Beginning packvar..."/> <echo message="Removing Existing tar File"/> <delete file="${rds.tars}/rdsvar.tar.gz"/> <echo message="Creating New tar File"/> <tar destfile="${rds.tars}/rdsvar.tar.gz" compression="gzip" longfile="gnu"> <tarfileset dir="${rds.var}"> <exclude name="**/.*"/> <include name="**"/> </tarfileset> </tar> [...]$ ant packvar Buildfile: build.xml packvar: [echo] Beginning packvar...
