Probably that file is over 2 GB. Unfortunately there is a bug in 0.10 
which causes this. I've updated the Installation page on the wiki to 
describe the problem more clearly:

   http://bbdev.fluffy.co.uk/trac/wiki/Installation

Please could you try updating both server and client to the chris/merge 
branch, as described on that page? You may also need to delete the old 
version of the file from the store in order to ensure that it is backed up 
cleanly. (for example, exclude it from the backup set, run a backup, then 
remove the exclusion).

Cheers, Chris.
