Error uploading large txt file using GUI_UPLOAD

[Former Member]

Hi everyone.

The situation is as follows: I have to process (batch input) an extremely large text file, of about 80 MB. As you can imagine, all I receive when I run my program is a dump somewhere inside the GUI_UPLOAD function routine due to excessive memory usage.

Does anybody know of a way to deal with this kind of files? Is there any function that allows partial processing or something like that?

Thanks a lot,

Fernando.

I don't think we have any room to move. SO, Try to devide this big file into small files and upload it ...

If you have to process it all at once, you can have basis FTP it to your application server and then use OPEN DATASET and TRANSFER rather than GUI_UPLOAD. this would probably be the quickest solution.
