I suspect dar is not using the large file support api for linux. http://www.suse.de/~aj/linux_lfs.html I'm using standard gentoo glibc, kernel 2.6.0-test11-mm1 (not that it matters). Other tools on my install are abel to create files larger than 2GB.

Hi Chuck, That doesn't work. I don't think it even uses CFLAGS during the build. I tried revamping the ebuild a bit: src_compile() { # This seems to be necessary to get the configure script to detect # a 64-bit off_t type export CXX="g++ ${CXXFLAGS} -D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 -D_LARGEFILE_SOURCE" export CC="gcc ${CFLAGS} -D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 -D_LARGEFILE_SOURCE" ./configure \ --host=${CHOST} \ --prefix=/usr \ --infodir=/usr/share/info \ --mandir=/usr/share/man \ --enable-largefile \ --enable-nodump-flag \ --enable-examples \ --enable-static \ --enable-special-alloc \ || die "./configure failed" # --enable-os-bits= \ # --enable-ea-support \ make || die } During configure, off_t is detected properly to be 64-bits (which looks promising), however when running DAR: <0>root@killr:~/backup# ./full ./full: line 23: 10772 File size limit exceededdar --create ${BACKUP}/${NAME_FULL}-${DATE} --exclude "${NAME_FULL}-*.dar" --exclude "${NAME_DIFF}-*.dar" --exclude 'core' --noconf --empty-dir --fs-root / --no-warn ${COMPRESSION} ${EXCLUDE_COMPRESSION} ${EXCLUDE} ${SPLIT}error while testing archive: badly formed infinint or not supported format (In this example, SPLIT='' -- ie. dont split).

Created attachment 23162 [details] dar-2.0.4.ebuild fixed large file support on 2.0.4. and add "ea-support" to IUSE.
Fixed in cvs, please test.
Unfortunately, the dar-2.0.4 ebuild i tested from comment #3 doesnt' fix the problem either. Are you folks able to reproduce this? root@killr:/mnt/import/backup# ll/root/backup/full: line 23: 27672 File size limit exceeded(core dumped) dar --create ${BACKUP}/${NAME_FULL}-${DATE} --exclude "${NAME_FULL}-*.dar" --exclude "${NAME_DIFF}-*.dar" --exclude 'core' --noconf --empty-dir --fs-root / --no-warn ${COMPRESSION} ${EXCLUDE_COMPRESSION} ${EXCLUDE} ${SPLIT} total 4198408 -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 2147483647 Jan 11 08:47 system-full-2004-01-11.1.dar -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 2147483647 Jan 12 03:58 system-full-2004-01-12.1.dar root@killr:/mnt/import/backup# dar --version dar version 2.0.4, Copyright (C) 2002-2052 Denis Corbin Using libdar 1.2 built with compilation time options: Extended Attributes support: YES Large files support (> 2GB): YES ext2fs NODUMP flag support : YES Special allocation scheme : YES Integer size used : unlimited Jan 11 2004 with GNUC version 3.3.2 20031218 (Gentoo Linux 3.3.2-r5, propolice-3.3-7) dar is part of the Disk ARchive suite (Release 2.0.4) dar comes with ABSOLUTELY NO WARRANTY; for details type `dar -W'.

this doesn't work either (even with the typo-correction ;-) Anyone trying these proposed fixes? Able to reproduce it? Trying to ascertain if it is specific to my machine or not. I have, however, been able to reproduce it in a chrooted environment built from stage3.
I was able to reproduce this error on my machine but I havent been able to find a fix to it. There is a new version of dar that supposedly fixes LFS support but I havent been able to test it because my main dev machine had died this past week. Ill test it tonight though. chuck
I try dar-2.0.4 without Large file patch but I got no problem on my environment(linux-2.6.1, XFS and ext3). # dar --version dar version 2.0.4, Copyright (C) 2002-2052 Denis Corbin Using libdar 1.2 built with compilation time options: Extended Attributes support: YES Large files support (> 2GB): YES ext2fs NODUMP flag support : YES Special allocation scheme : YES Integer size used : unlimited (snip)
On a recent install of Gentoo, I find that I can no longer reproduce this...
