Jacques Le Roux commented on OFBIZ-4385:
----------------------------------------
Thanks for report Sam,
I agree this should be addressed, if we want to claim to support large
organizations OOTB...
> ImageManagement cannot handle many directories
> ----------------------------------------------
>
> Key: OFBIZ-4385
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OFBIZ-4385
> Project: OFBiz
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: product
> Affects Versions: SVN trunk
> Reporter: Sam Hamilton
> Priority: Minor
>
> The way that ImageManagement creates directories to save product images means
> that you end up hitting file system limits if you have a lot of products that
> need images.
> Ext3 currently allows ~32,000 directories within one parent directory and so
> if you have more than 32,000 products you cannot save any more images as the
> underlying system will not allow the creation of directories. Ext4 currently
> allows ~64,000 directories within one parent directory so depending on your
> filesystem you will not see the error until reaching this higher number.
> See "Break 32,000 subdirectory limit" from
> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ext4#Features
> Thanks
> Sam
