In which case, that isn't the problem. What type of filesystem are you using? ext2 has a limit of 32768 subdirectories, increased to 64000 in ext4. I know that btrfs has a rather low limit on the number of hard links (which normally determines the maximum number of subdirectories, as each subdirectory's ".." entry is a hard link to its parent). > indeed: > ulimit -n unlimited > bash: ulimit: open files: cannot modify limit: Operation not permitted You can't increase a soft limit above the corresponding hard limit, and you can't increase a hard limit unless you're root (and sudo won't work because the limits are per-process, so ulimit has to be a shell built-in). On a system which uses PAM, the limits are normally set on login based upon the contents of /etc/security/limits.conf. -- Glynn Clements <[email protected]> _______________________________________________ grass-dev mailing list [email protected] http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/grass-dev
