Re: Driver crashing on many temporary tables?

[Jan-Peter(dot)Seifert(at)gmx(dot)de]

Hello,

I did some more checks. psqlodbc-08_00_0101 is indeed not crashing - psqlodbc-08_01_0200 does. I haven't tested the other versions in between yet. Maybe the switch to libpq and ANSI/Unicode versions does make the difference. Via script I've found some tuples with characters not defined in LATIN1 - the db's encoding. I've replaced all the characters in question and will run another test with the newest psqlODBC on the db.

BTW is there a way to manually set the ROLLBACK LEVEL ON ERROR to Statement ( via SQL statement in the connect settings for example?) in older versions of psqlODBC (those without radio button)? Otherwise errors not connected to this problem could occur.

Can I change the path to the psqlODBC Logs from C:\?

I've sent a private mail with the download information.

Thank you very much,
