bug#17904: issue with split command
Hi All,
After some investigation, I found that inspite of me giving a size
specification as +1000, it is taking 500 as default and in this due course, it
has deleted some files which were over 500KB.
I am able to resolve the issue now.
Thank You,
V. Jayaprakash

Hello,
I am using split command to split a large file and later I am renaming file.
PFB command.

However, this is giving correct result sometimes and other times :
while creating files, the file with name ending newaa is missing
.(This would be the first file output while splitting)
Thanks for the bug report.
However, TBH I don't see a problem here (... other than later file names
possibly clashing the earlier produced *new* files; I reported that to the
main coreutils list separately).
For ex:
If I split a file named sample of size 1100 KB and with 25000 lines. If I
run the above query:

Can you please explain what you mean by sometimes here?
Is this related to certain files (where you could reproduce with a standalone
split -l 1 file file-new run)?
Samplenewaa.list
Samplenewab.list
Samplenewac.list
But other times,only:
Samplenewab.list
Samplenewac.list
Can you please look into this and let me know if this is a bug or if I am
doing something wrong.
Thank You,
Can you please try to narrow the test case down to the file where the aa file
is missing? Both split(1) and mv(1) have the --verbose option which could help
finding the cause.
Thanks have a nice day,
Berny

Hi Andreas,
PFB means please find below :-) (sorry for the confusing acronym)
Well, as far as splitting it to separate folder is concerned, I am sure the
newly created files can never be more than 1000KB. Usually the split up files
are around 250KB - 300KB in size.
Thank You,
V. Jayaprakash

This may find the newly created files, splitting them again if any of the
produced files is bigger then 1000 bytes. You should produce the output in a
separate directory not located below the current one.
