Kmakemultires 1.0.8.10 error

    Hi Klaus,

    I have a 55Gb Giga panorama which i want to be tiled.

    I start in terminal calling Kmakemultires with parameters. After telling it the configuration of my panorama, it starts creating the tiles for level 7: l7_%0v_%0h.jpg

    But i get an error

    Code
    ERROR: unable to create file /xxx/xxx/xxx/pano.tiles/l7_01_253.jpg


    Any idea?

    Thanks

    Regards

    Hi,

    on Mac the number of files that are opened at the same time by one program is limited by default (I think to 256), and a program can't change that limit by itself,

    the kmaketiles tool is writing all tiles for one row at the same time,
    that means for a 233.059 pixel wide image a minimum of 299 (=233059/780) files will be needed,
    and this is more than the limited 256 files,

    you can increase this 256 files limit in the terminal by the ulimit command,
    e.g. to increase the limit to 1000 files:

    Code
    ulimit -n 1000

    than it should work,

    best regards,
    Klaus

    hi, i have the same problem on both windows and linux. kmakemultires makes a preview.jpg alright and crashes.

    on linux i tried

    Quote

    ulimit -n 2000


    but that wouldn't help. i also moved the krpano tools and the panoramic image to another hard drive where there is a lot of free space - no change.
