Hello,

 

 

FME return me this message :

 

Error - Cannot write out a file larger than 4.295GB. Split your data into two or more shape files

 

 

 

My configuration :

 

Microsoft Windows Server 2003 family Standard Edition 64-bit Service Pack 2 (Build 3790)

 

 

 

Version : FME(R) 2013 SP2 (20130605 - Build 13499 - WIN64)

 

 

if you have an idea to solve this problem because my project size is more than 25 Gb

 

 

jy

Hi,

 

 

The limitation is the shape file format, as suggested you can split your data to more shape files (project zones?? or create a tile based on the bounding box area of the project for clipping) or write to a different format that does support a bigger file size ( gdb for example)
