Subject Unexplained Delphi Crashes After Moving to Firebird 2.1.2
Author Greg Kay
Hi,

We've just moved to from Firebird Classic 2.03 on Linux to Firebird
Classic 2.1.2 on Linux. We have some delphi apps running as web servers
on Windows and occasionally these apps are terminating unexpectedly.
Normally we would have an exception logged to explain the crash but not
so in some cases. We're using FibPlus 6.41 and things were running quite
well for the last couple of years with Firebird 2.03. When crashes
occurred they were correctly logged. The only change that seems like it
could affect the application exception handling is the new GDS32.dll
that ships with Firebird 2.1.

There is no indication in the Firebird log and the Windows event viewer
says that a service was terminated unexpectedly.

Has anyone experienced any strange application termination when moving
to Firebird 2.1.

We're running Firebird Classic 2.1.2 on Linux OpenSuse 10.2 x86-64 with
about 600 connections during peak times.
