"Word too long" error while running write_vectors step in Encounter test

Hi,

I am getting an error called "word too long" while executing write_vectors step in command line prompt of ET with version 8.1.200.

A particular keyword in the write_vectors step namely "releasepioffsetlist" is having 173 primary inputs listed under it and assigned with offset values.

As a workaround i reduced it to 164 primary inputs under this keyword then it is working fine (vectors are getting writtern).

Please help me on this issue.

Thanks

Krishnaraj

     Hi Krishna,

                 I guess this is issue with linux, there is some limit in linux when considering the hash/length of a variable (may be we can change this limit with some settings but i am not aware of that).

                        I also had the same issue when assiging a variable with some details, below are the details of the issue i had and the way we sloved.

     Issue occured when i used:

    echo "\n\t$toolLogFiles" >> logs/infralogs/$stageName.log

     

    Issue sloved with:

    foreach logFile ($toolLogFiles)
    echo "\n\t$logFile" >> logs/infralogs/$stageName.log
    end

     

                    Hope you can use similar method to get rid of the issue.

     

    regards

    deepak.
