Problem Uploading Large Files with Community Explorer

[jorkrim]

Does Alfresco Community support the upload of large files?

I am using Alfresco Community v3.4.d (64-bit) and have successfully uploaded a 1.6GB file through Alfresco Explorer, but it hangs when I try files >2GB (looks like it is still uploading, but never finishes).

Is this a known bug? Is there a patch to repair it?

Cheers,
Adam.

UPDATE: I've downloaded the 30-day trial of the Enterprise Edition and I have the same problem with Alfresco Explorer (using Firefox and IE).

I am having the same problem.  The zip I am trying to import is 3.4 GB.  If I use "zipsplit" to split it into 4 zips, each less than 1GB, the first one goes fine. Subsequent imports fail with "09:55:00,657 ERROR [org.alfresco.web.ui.common.Utils] Failed to execute import: org.alfresco.error.AlfrescoRuntimeException: 07190036 Failed to process ZIP file.
org.alfresco.error.AlfrescoRuntimeException: 07190036 Failed to process ZIP file."
Caused by: org.alfresco.service.cmr.model.FileExistsException: Existing file or folder Documents already exists.

I interpret this to mean that Alfresco is trying to recreate a space (directory) called Documents, even though this directory is an entry only in the first zip. Subsequent zips only have entries that add to this directory.

The only concrete suggestion I've found is to increase tomcat's heap size (http://forums.alfresco.com/en/viewtopic.php?t=17131).  Trying this had no effect.

I'm going to have to abandon Alfresco soon if I can't resolve this.
Your help is appreciated.
