Hi,

I have problem in FITLD'ing data from tape when the total
size of data is larger than 2GB. I have run both 31DEC03
and 31DEC03 AIPS versions on 64-bit file system machine
(Solaris), even after I tried to write the compressed data
(douvcomp=1).

The abridged error message is as follows.

----------------------------------------------------------

What can I do?
