Hello everyone,
I have one problem to output all records of "glt_det" table from MFG/Pro into one text file(glt_det.txt) which is used to upload to MySQL. After the output text file is reached around 2GB file size, there is an error message "UNIX maximum file size excceeded..(303)". I don't why because my os platform is Redhat Enterprise 4.x with ext3 file system which is allowed one single file size is beyond 2GB limitation. Who can tell me how to fit it, attached please find my dumpdata3.p program for your reference. Thanks for your help.


Best Regards,
Sunny Leung.

In older versions of Progress the 4GL uses 32 bit IO routines and is thus limited to creating files under the 2GB size limit.

The classic work-around is to put a counter in your export routine and break the file into pieces every so often. Then, if needed, combine them at the OS level when the export is finished.
