Yes I tried it several ways including the direct call to dumper.exe. I used the batch file just so I could pause the console window long enough to view the messages. It looks like several other people are having the problem though and some aren't. I am using the latest binary distro on XP. I've never DLed and rebuilt the packages from source. Perhaps I should try that. Which package is dumper contained in? I'd imagine it has some dependencies with other packages for which I'll need source?
