Hi Roberto (and yap-users)

Sorry for taking so long to reply.

I include a patch that seems to fix this bug for me. The patch and recent changes can also be found at

http://gitorious.org/projects/yap-git

The patch tries to handle DB overflows that may happen when you try to initialise a very large number of predicates. Please tell me if it works.

This is a temporary location: yap has now moved to a git development model, and temporarily I am using gitorious to keep a copy.

Cheers

Hi Vitor.

I just tried the patch on Yap-5.1.3 (on a x86_64 machine, also using --enable-dynamic-loading), but it seems not working. I keep obtaining the same error message:
