Hello folks,
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.
Please upgrade to rev
13866 (or at least apply the patch - 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.
Thanks to Tony for
acting quickly on this patch.
