--- Comment #39 from John Sterbenz <jsterben at umich.edu> ---
This is a new issue to me (as of yesterday) on the 18.11 series on 18.04 LTS. 
This process had worked for years prior (all the way back to 2016 / 3.22 on
14.04)--now every load I try fails.

I did upgrade my production server to 18.04 in preparation for installation of
the 19.05 series--that is the only difference (in terms of anything I've
directly initiated) between success and failure, yet the comments here indicate
this has been an issue for nearly 5 years and reported (at least here) as
recently as a few months ago.  Prod was already running the 18.11 series--it
was only the OS I upgraded.

Thanks to VM snapshots, I took my dev server back to 17.11 on 16.04 and
everything worked again, but that doesn't do me any good for production.

This is the only way we load records--and do so to the tune of 260K-300K
records a month (in files of 20K records).  Most of these records are
overlaid--perhaps only 1-2% are new records.  We are at a standstill until this
is resolved or I identify some sort of workaround.

I have not yet tried anything like a smaller file size since this was just
discovered yesterday by my staff in the course of regular work.  I note the
mention of Plack (without having read the entire comment thread yet to see if
this is relevant/related or not) and have not turned that off for this instance
to see if that will matter.
