n

The size of the stack in 1KB units.

Use Stack Size (-s) to change the size of the stack (an internal memory area used by Progress program modules). Increase the stack size if one of the following messages appears:

SYSTEM ERROR: stkpush: stack overflow. Increase -s parameter.
SYSTEM ERROR: stkditem: stack overflow. Increase -s parameter. 

Stack overflow errors are most likely when data definitions are loaded for very large tables or use recursive procedures.
