Re: rpmdb write File too large problem

Hi James,

The problem was that in specific shell i run mistakenly
ulimit -f 1024
instead of
ulimit -n 1024
and forgot to set back ulimit -f
in the same shell later the yum commands started to fail
and that explains why speficically i got "1024: File too large"

Thanks
Alex
