I don't have Linux, but you might be running into Fujitsu's file size limitations for Linux. Per their website:
"5. Q: Are there any significant limitations in the NetCOBOL for Linux product?

A: There are some restrictions in NetCOBOL for Linux Version 7. Whether they are significant or not will depend on the application. The key restrictions are:

SCREEN SECTION is not supported;
Unicode is not supported;
National Language items and literals are not supported;
COBOL files cannot be larger than 2 GB. "

Any chance you are storing some information from EACH record in a table - and the table isn't large enough to read all your records?

Also, do you know how many TOTAL records there are? If so, is it possible that you are doing something "wrong" after reading the last record in the file?

What filesystem do you use? Dealing with >2Gb files I would go for JFS or even better XFS (

P.S. Why don't you play with OpenCOBOL in combination with BerkeleyDB? Please report how this combination handled the large files? It should work great
