table full when using file_per_table

I'm using innodb_file_per_table on a version 4.1.12 server on RH linux. At one point I got error 1114 "The table 'X' is full". Aren't these tables autoextending? I don't think I reached a linux file size limit. A call to ulimit shows the file size is unlimited. The file was a couple of Gig.

max_connections and open-files-limit

SQL to its knees by opening lots and lots of connections? Would it affect the entire system, or just the mysql process? -Rick Taft -- Rick Taft Hewlett-Packard Company 200 Route 9 North Manalapan, New Jersey 07726 -- MySQL General Mailing List For list archives: http://lists.mysql.com/mysql To u
