[gentoo-user] gdbm fatal: write error

2008-01-20 Thread de Almeida, Valmor F. 

Hello,

I am using Python's shelve module to create a large database. As soon as
the data base file crosses the 2.1 GB mark, I get the error:

gdbm fatal: write error

Any insight appreciated.

Thanks,

 the data base file crosses the 2.1 GB mark, I get the error:

It looks like GDBM files have a 2GB limit. Does anyone know whether this
can be changed?

Thanks,
