The LNI *might* be able to do this for you. It streams directly from the incoming PUT body through a Zip decoder into a Bitstream, so theoretically there is no artificial length limit. However, the _implementation_ of any of those layers of software might not be able to handle files larger than 2Gb -- the HTTP client, the HTTP servlet container (i.e. Tomcat), Zip decoder in JVM... I'm not even sure if the Zip format itself accomodates such large files.
So, with those caveats, you could arrange a test, just build a simple LNI client out of: http://wiki.dspace.org/index.php/Simple_LNI_Client http://wiki.dspace.org/index.php/DSpace_SIP_Toolkit Also, it is *very* important NOT to set the HTTP Content-Length: header in your LNI PUT request, since I know that won't work for large files. The code stupidly parses it as an int, that is a bug someone should submit. I'd also recommend making sure the Zip library in the client doesn't try to compress the video files since it'll probably just waste a lot of CPU and accomplish nothing. Maybe turn off compression entirely when building the Zip. good luck, -- Larry > I want to use DSpace as a repository for large video files (in a private > gigabit LAN, not over the Web), i succesfully edited config files and css > stylesheets to fit my needs. > > Files larger than 2 GB cannot be submitted, i reach that limit modifying the > size value in web.xml directly in Tomcat to 2000000000, if i try a higher > value i get a lot of java errors. > > Is there a simple way to submit files larger than 2GB via web interface? > > The second question is: when i submit large files, i need to see in the > upload webpage an embedded progress bar which informs me about the percentage > submitted and possibly the transfer rate.
