64 bits! That makes sense. I don't generally work with large files either. I have been getting my vm from get.pharo.org, so I will need to get the source to build the vm in the first place. A quick survey over the last few hours has revealed a multitude of vms, projects, platforms, repositories, and versions that I, in my pharo ignorance, cannot differentiate. Could someone please point me to the source I should be using to build the vm for the pharo40 image I have been pulling of get.pharo.org?

There is a bug report on mantis for squeaks unix vm. I think this applies to pharo too, although I don't know if this bug is still valid on recent squeak vm.

The OS is Arch Linux.
I can read the file with less.
The problem, insofar as I can trace it, seems to stem from this line in UnixStore:
Primitives lookupDirectory: encodedPath filename: encodedBasename
When I have my 57G file there this line returns nil. If I move the 57G file and create a small file with the same name, the same command successfully finds the file. I am not sure how large a file must be to cause this issue, but A 1.5G file works fine.

Hi, thanks for the reply.
The response is the same: "MessageNotUnderstood: False>>humanReadableSIByteSize."
This happens both to print-it as well as to do-it-and-go. Running the command on the neighboring "wiki.torrent" torrent file yields the correct 54kb.
Thanks, Evan

Hi,
If I understand correctly, the failure occurs while navigating in the "Items" presentation.
I cannot reproduce this problem because I do not have enough disk space for such a large file :). But, could you do the following and let me know what the outcome is:
'path/to/your/large/file.xml' asFileReference humanReadableSize
?
Cheers, Doru

Hello, I've run into some odd behavior and wanted to check whether I might be missing something:
I have downloaded a copy of the english wikipedia as an xml file and am hoping to (sax) parse it. However, I can't even seem to get pharo to recognize that the file exists.
If I open FileSystem disk root in the playground and naigate, attempting to enter the folder containing the (57G) xml file fails with "MessageNotUnderstood: False>>humanReadableSIByteSize." Likewise if I get a FileReference with FileSystem disk root / 'path' / 'to' / 'file' then self exists returns false and the parser fails.
Am I doing something wrong? Should I be able to do this?
The version number is #40283
Thanks, Evan

Which OS ? Can you check with other programs if this file is readable at all?
