RE: Problem when building on HP-UX 11i(11.11)

[Leon Strydom]

I am compiling in 64-bit mode.
This is the error I get:
  /data/backup/backup.gtar: Wrote only 1536 of 10240 bytes
  /usr/local/bin/tar: Error is not recoverable: exiting now

The configure script will try to detect what it takes to create large
file and will try to enable those options.  If you see this in 32-bit
mode then you are getting large files.

  checking for special C compiler options needed for large files... no
  checking for _FILE_OFFSET_BITS value needed for large files... 64
  checking for _LARGE_FILES value needed for large files... no

The magic for hpux is -D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64.

If you compiled in 64-bit mode then you have large file capability by
default too.

Could it by any chance be trying to ask the user to change media?
