File Listener - File size limit
re: Platform 7.3.1 Does the default file upload size limit of 1 GB and Initialization/MaximumFileUploadSizeMB setting govern File Listeners? Is there another setting that governs the size limit for the File Listener?

The File Listener API no longer reads the entire file into memory, but streams in the file, so there is no file size limit except for space on the server.

Hi Don,
I don't think so.
The default size limit of 1 GB applies to the Import Archive tool and this is a limitation on upload operation, not on the import.
The setting Initialization/MaximumFileUploadSizeMB determines the size of an attachment which can be attached to a case.

File listener does not impose restrictions on file size if you are using file listener in conjunction with a parse delimited rule. If you change the configuration to something else that writes the file contents into memory (i.e. clipboard), you will bump up against heap space limits.

sure Thank you.
The error message which was attached to this post doesnt capture the complete File Listener crash down exceptions.
Could someone please suggest about the best practices/optimization details to implement the file listener @ PPRC 731.
Also please recommend the best solution to monitor the File Listener activity.
