It wasn't really a problem of the filesystem I used, because I tested it and created a file which exceeded this limit. I think it was more the problem of Berkeley DB used in 3.1.x ...
At the moment I re-index my server list and am really hopeful to be able to create a database exceeding this limit, if I understood Geoff right ?! -----Urspr�ngliche Nachricht----- Von: Torsten Neuer [mailto:tneuer@;inwise.de] Gesendet: Montag, 11.

Well, the limitation is *not* in Linux, but in the filesystem used (old ext2). Using another filesystem (e.g. reiserfs) or upgrading to a newer Version of ext2fs (>= 0.5a with e2fsprogs >= 1.26) with large-file support should fix this. hth, Torsten -- InWise - Wirtschaftlich-Wissenschaftlicher Internet Service GmbH Waldhofstra�e 14 Tel: +49-4101-403605 D-25474 Ellerbek Fax: +49-4101-403606 E-Mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Internet: http://www.inwise.de ------------------------------------------------------- This sf.net email is sponsored by:ThinkGeek Welcome to geek heaven. http://thinkgeek.com/sf _______________________________________________ htdig-general mailing list <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To unsubscribe, send a message to <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> with a subject of unsubscribe FAQ: http://htdig.sourceforge.net/FAQ.html
