Обсуждение: URGENT - "CANNOT EXTEND"
A couple days ago I asked what happens when I hit 2GB and I was told "no
worries". Well, I hit 2GB and it barfed on me. It looks like postgres is
trying to create a new file, but it isn't able to use it....
/dev/sda is where my database resides and it has 38% free.
Right now, geocrawler is still up and running, but no new mail can be
inserted into it until I can get this figured out....
Please respond directly to tim@perdue.net
Thanks,
Tim

While PostgreSQL does not have a problem, and many OS's don't, some can't handle a file that is exactly 2 gigs, so we have modified the 6.5 unreleased code to stop growing the table at about 1 gig, and create a new table file so that is not a problem. Peter Mount made the change. I don't see anything on our FTP server about that patch, so perhaps Peter will have to supply one, or we will have to grab one. If you search the hackers archive on the ftp site, you will see discussion about it, and perhaps a patch. -- Bruce Momjian | http://www.op.net/~candle maillist@candle.pha.pa.us | (610) 853-3000 + If your life is a hard drive, | 830 Blythe Avenue + Christ can be your backup. | Drexel Hill, Pennsylvania 19026

I did post a patch when I found the problem to the patches list. That one
set it to 1 block short of 2Gig, and afterwards, we decided to change it
to 1Gig. I thought the changes had been made already.
I'm finally about to get back into the swing of things, and I'll post the
patch again as soon as I resync my sources.
As for it working with 6.4, it should do, although you probably have to
apply the patch manually.

This diff is from this mornings cvs. Good job I don't delete what I send out ;-) Peter -- Peter T Mount peter@retep.org.uk Main Homepage: http://www.retep.org.uk PostgreSQL JDBC Faq: http://www.retep.org.uk/postgresJava PDF Generator: http://www.retep.org.uk/pdf
