Re: [Flow-tools] File size limit for flow-cat?

[Dave Lien]

First of all, thanks for the original patch! OK, now for the part where I sound like an idiot.  I built flow-tools with large file support on two other machines, each of which had a different OS version.  Large file support worked on both, no problems.  So, I came back to my original machine and started from scratch.  That is I deleted the /flow-tools-0.6.8/ directory from which I had been configuring.  I ran ./configure with --enable-lfs and guess what, it now works great. Previously I had done a 'make distclean' and 'make clean', but perhaps I had a file sticking around that messed me up.  Anyway, the clean build worked for me. Also, for what it is worth I get the same error message in config.log on all three builds, all of which work just fine. configure:6364: Large File Support Enabled. configure:6374: checking for special C compiler options needed for large files configure:6454: result: no configure:6460: checking for _FILE_OFFSET_BITS value needed for large files configure:6492: gcc -c -g -Wall  conftest.c >&5 configure:6529: warning: left shift count >= width of type configure:6529: warning: left shift count >= width of type configure:6531: error: size of array `off_t_is_large' is negative configure:6495: $? = 1 Thanks all for your help!

I'm over my head at this point and am open to suggestions as to flags or other changes to get large file support working Dave, I provided the original patch that enabled large file support. Can you tell me what platform (OS and version, Kernel version, and Architecture) you're running on? and what version of autoconf and automake you're running? and what file system you're using? >From the configure script output, I suspect you're on a 64bit architecture. I regularly run flowcat and flowstat on files much larger than 2GB on RHAS 4 on 32bit x86 using an ext3 file system. - Alex -- V.
