Creating ZIP database for android fails

[bokkoman]

I'm trying to create a zip database for the android version of ddt4all.
I did it before with no problem with an older database. But now I have the latest database and I get a memory error.

Writing database
Writing archive
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "C:\Program Files (x86)\ddt4all\ddt4all.py", line 614, in zipdb
    parameters.zipConvertXML(filename)
  File "C:\Program Files (x86)\ddt4all\parameters.py", line 1713, in zipConvertXML
    f.write(zipoutput.getvalue())
  File "C:\Program Files (x86)\ddt4all\Python27\lib\StringIO.py", line 271, in getvalue
    self.buf += ''.join(self.buflist)
MemoryError

What can I do about this?

Not enough space on your hard drive?

I have more than enough space.

Think it's more a RAM issue (it uses a lot of RAM to compress)

Well, that sucks. Maybe you should write a different code to make the zip db? Make it zip constantly instead of at the end, because this way it will be impossible for me to zip this db.

Well, I do that on my spare time... I'm actually too busy to work on that, sorry. Try to borrow a computer with more RAM to do the process.

Yeah i know you do that. I'm very happy with the software you provided.
I'll see what I can do with the zipping. Only other laptop I've got is a macbook. But I'm not used to macbooks, and installing ddt4all on mac sounds like a hassle.

i was monitoring my ram usage (16go ram, 140go free space on hdd) the ram used didn't grow that much when the bug happen, i think it's a limitation by the system that allows a certain amount of memory to the application (pyton), maybe is there a way to make it allow more memory ?

Et encore merci Cedric pour ce travail de ouf, jamais on te remerciera assez...

Cdt,

I have the same problem,

Ram used by process was about a gig, and I have 8gig on laptop with about 100gig space on SSD

I'm getting: TypeError: Object of type bytes is not JSON serializable

I've installed from source on Mac and successfully created the zip with the same database so I think this was just an issue in the latest windows installer version.

Same issue here as #350 (comment), even with the same file. Definetely it's an issue with DDT4ALL V2.0 for windows, as V1.5 is compressing fine with the same database (not ended yet)
