Hy everibody, when creating files bigger than 2GB I get error "File size limit exceeded"... I use woody, kernel 2.6.7, libc6 2.3.2.ds1-13, and this is the output from ulimit -a:
core file size (blocks, -c) 0 data seg size (kbytes, -d) unlimited file size (blocks, -f) unlimited max locked memory (kbytes, -l) 32768 max memory size (kbytes, -m) unlimited open files (-n) 1024 pipe size (512 bytes, -p) 8 stack size (kbytes, -s) 8192 cpu time (seconds, -t) unlimited max user processes (-u) 10239 virtual memory (kbytes, -v) unlimited
I can't get the solution to this problem. Have I to recompile the utilities ( scp, ftp and so on ) against new kernel headers? ( hope this is not necessary).
It "should" just work. To support files larger than 2 Gbytes you need any 2.4 or later kernel, libc 2.2 and later. I frequently handle files larger than that - the _only_ system that gives me grief is my Mac (OSX).
I'm looking right now at a file that's hosted on Woody, kernel 2.4.18-1-686, libc 2.2.5.
If you're using a 2.6 kernel and libc6 2.3 then it's evident it's far from standard Woody and whatever you've done to it may well be the source of your problems.
