zimsplit (zim-tools_win-x86_64-3.5.0) can not split big files (100gb) to bigger slices than ca. 2,1Gbyte

[BD-RE]

I tried to split wikipedia_en_all_maxi_2024-01.zim with 102 GB (109.885.670.576 Bytes) to 25gb slices, and got "stol argument out of range".

Looks like a bug indeed, probably linked to the size parameter. Try without it and you will have 2GB chunks

this leads to the second problem:
zimsplit (zim-tools_win-x86_64-3.5.0) can not handle well zim. files bigger than ca.80gb splitting to Default: 2GB #433

@BD-RE Whatbis exactly this "second problem"? I don't see described somewhere. You mean #435?

Thank you, you did find it already: #433
