We are currently trying to get pspp up and running on one of our
systems. One thing we can't seem to figure out is where/how to set the
ENV variables to get pspp to pick them up. I have been searching the
documentation and the internet in general for a day now, and can't seem
to come up with an answer.
We are specifically trying to set TMPDIR=/data/tmp instead of /tmp.
Despite the variable being exported and being echo'd, it is not picked
up when pspp is called, and pspp defaults to /tmp.
This is bad for us, as we have a 20TB partition on /data/, but only
100GB or so on /. This means that pspp can't be used on large files
without erroring out with the following error message.
pspp: writing to temporary file: No space left on device
When using pspp, I can see that it is writing to /tmp, not /data/tmp
when it is running:
pspp 15778 testuser 6u REG 8,1
71942660096 7700489 /tmp/tmpftWxyZS (deleted)
