The following bug has been logged online: Bug reference: 6208 Logged by: Richard G. Bayer Email address: ba...@nws.cz PostgreSQL version: 8.4.7 Operating system: Windiws XP 32-bit Description: crash when c: occupied by removable drive Details:
After hours of debugging an application we bought we figured out that the PG library was the reason. The computer had a specialty: Installed with a all-in one reader drive (Apacer) the main HDD partition settled on E: and left C: and D: for removable SD, CompactFlash etc. The library handled well the case when C: was not present at all. But as soon as there was a removable media drive (in UI saying "insert media") the library crashes. It somehow checks C: and does not handle this Exception (Insert-Some-Damn-SD-Exception). I found that out when I moved those removables to X: and Y:. With no C: at all the application started to work like a charm. I have no idea if this remained to the following versions, but it is such a rare circumstance, that I believe your testers could miss it. Hope this was helpful, Richard G.
