<DIV><SPAN class=194402019-20062009> <FONT face=Arial
size=2>An important stability issue was identified in the FreeSWITCH core ODBC
drivers when utilizing decimal / float columns in databases (at least MySQL
anyway). This has an adverse effect on users of mod_nibblebill, as you are
likely using floating point or decimal columns to track cash amounts. FreeSWITCH
may periodically core dump when a floating point value is retrieved from the
database due to this bug.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

size=2>Please upgrade to rev 13866 (or at least <A
href="http://fisheye.freeswitch.org/browse/FreeSWITCH/src/switch_odbc.c?r1=12152&r2=13866">apply
the patch</A> - it can be applied independently if you are on at least rev
12152). You do not need to update mod_nibblebill, as the bug is not actually in
mod_nibblebill, it just happens to cause the right conditions to exist to
exhibit this behavior.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>
