RE: [PHP-DB] Splitting a CSV file

I've never seen where the file size causes a problem that wasn't one of the file size settings either in the upload form or php.ini. I'd focus on figuring out why it's failing on the large files before trying to split it. No errors at all? Just a blank screen? Are you uploading the file through a browser? <>< Ryan -----Original Message----- From: Matt Babineau [mailto:list_mysql@criticalcode.com] Sent: Monday, November 24, 2003 2:37 PM To: php-db@lists.php.net Subject: Re: [PHP-DB] Splitting a CSV file Chris, If you are on a Redhat machine, you could try running a CLI command on this. Try looking up the 'split' command, it may solve your problem if you combine it with some PHP. -Matt On Mon, 2003-11-24 at 19:14, Chris Payne wrote: > Hi there everyone, > > I'm writing an automation system to automatically insert data into a mysql database from a CSV file, and it works great - until I try to insert a large file, then it just doesn't do anything. > > I've set my PHP filesize to 10 Megs so that's not the issue, and a server timeout isn't the issue either. So, is that a way that I can split a CSV file into 2 files if it's larger than a certain size so that I can still use the automation I am working on? > > Actually, I won't see the files as it's for a company who just wants > to be able to select their CSV file (No matter what size) and it will > insert it automatically, and as I said it does work on small files but > not large :-( > > Any help would really be appreciated. > > Chris -- PHP Database Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
