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.

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.

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