Bruce,

Core dumps are even more of a pain on NT since they don't generate a helpful trace file as on other platforms. You should have a core.log file in one of the dump directories (core_dump_dest didn't work on NT, although I've heard it does on 8.1.7+, but haven't tested it).

There should be a stack trace in it somewhere, but that's about it. If you're lucky, it will be unique enough to help support identify an existing bug.

Yes, I have had cases where enabling tracing prevented the error from occurring, thereby making it incredibly difficult to resolve.

HTH,
