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.
