Hi John,

 

Just wanted to let you know I downloaded that latest build you pointed me to and have been working crash-free! Thank you!

Hi Jill,

A number of people have reported similar problems, but none of the developers
has been able to reproduce them.

Could you help us by:

1. Downloading Harry's latest windows build from http://sourceforge.net/projects/pspp4windows/
  and see if the problem still exists on that version.

2. If it does, please post the exact syntax that you use to provoke the crash.  If it
  uses a .sav file or any other external files, then please send that along too.

Thanks.

    Hi,

    When running very basic syntax (frequencies, variable labels, etc.), pspp
    is consistently crashing--it seems to do okay for awhile if I just run 2 or
    3 commands at a time, but if I run 6 or 7 at once--it crashes. Even if I do
    2-3 at a time it eventually crashes. I get one of a two error messages:

    "The Instruction at "0x7c9369da" (this varies each time) referenced memory
    at 0x0000002c" (also varies each time). The memory could not be "read"
    (have also seen "written")

    OR:

    psppire.exe has encountered a problem and needs to close. Please tell
    Microsoft.

    I've checked with our IT dept. to see if it is anything on my end, but they
    couldn't help me. I also saw the one post about pspp crashing from November
    7, 2009, but don't think that applies to my situation.

    Thanks in advance for any suggestions.
    Jill
