[osmosis-dev] java.io.IOException: No space left on device

[James P. Biagioni]

Hi all,

When I try to cut a bounding box out of the Planet.osm file, with the
completeWays=yes option on, I receive the error: java.io.IOException:
No space left on device

This seems strange to me, because I have 950GB of disk space
available, and 6GB of RAM to work with.

If I leave the completeWays option in it's default setting (=no),
Osmosis runs fine (with the exception, of course, of removing nodes
outside of my bounding box).

Is there something I'm missing? For reference sake, my bounding box is
not particularly large, it essentially encompasses Northern Illinois
(w/Chicago) and South Wisconsin.

Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
James
