An old client of mine got an error that reads 'File to big, out of space' or something like that. It comes out that the file size has reached the ulimit size. How do I increase the ulimit for him? I thought Informix took care of that automatically. Another user is way past the ulimit with no problem. -- Dan Troxel VP of Computer Operations @ Handwriting Research Corporation - 2821 E.

Since the database engine (sqlexec) boosts its ulimit, it should not run into problems when working with database tables. Are you sure that this isn't a report or other file that is exceeding the ulimit? Or, could the mode bits in the sqlexec executable have been altered? -- Alan S.
