Well, that settles it then.

You now have two options:

  1. Get more memory in the server; or
  2. Re-write your application so you do not need to have the wholehave less of the file in memory at the same time.
Update: edited the above to make it more clear.

    Re-write your application so you do not need to have the whole file in memory at the same time.

    Great idea :) Too bad that is what the OP is asking help with (though without providing all required details)

      Not at all.

      The OP asked:

      Can you please help me to find out why it is not working?

      He answered that himself ("Out of memory") in his reply to my post. Then I gave him two possible solutions. Maybe he will come back and ask how to rewrite his script. We will deal with the questions when they arrive. The OP may very well be able to solve his problem himself now that he knows the cause and it would be presumptuous of us to assume he cannot do that.

        LOL, so all OP has to do is fix it, brilliant!

        Its not as if the OP was trying to have less of the file in memory at the same time and failing

        I do assume you don't know how to fix it
