Indeed. I did that first to ensure I had found the root cause of the problem. But it occurred to me that the program should be robust enough to deal with such errors. The way the program was originally written, there was no indication that there was a problem with the import until we added the track to a log and learned that the track was significantly shorter than the original... And just to be pedantic, Debian wheezy makes a RAM-based (tmpfs) /tmp when the amount of installed RAM is sufficiently large enough (I haven't researched the actual limit) to "justify" it. The "supported" way to to increase the size of the /tmp file system is to edit the parameter "TMPFS_SIZE" in /lib/init/tmpfs.sh. ~d _______________________________________________ Rivendell-dev mailing list [email protected] http://lists.rivendellaudio.org/mailman/listinfo/rivendell-dev
