DIR /Z Causes GPF in TCMD V10 B50

In:
TCC 11.00.50 Windows XP [Version 5.1.2600]
TCC Build 50 Windows XP Build 2600 Service Pack 3

I've had this problem in the past with previous versions of TCMD but this problem is repeatable even across IPLs of the system. If I enter DIR /Z the display gets almost to the end before the GPF.

Here is the Windows XP Event Viewer data logged:

I was also able to save the file from the Microsoft "Send Error" report although I didn't send the report to Microsoft. I can e-mail the report and a copy of the DESCRIPT.ION file (Since this one doesn't have any passwords in it like the time I previously reported the problem) if you let me know where to send it.

My Road Runner today has been flaky, so I might be slow to respond to any reply.

Bad form to reply to one's post, but I couldn't edit the title. This error occurred in TCMD V11 NOT V10 as the post title indicates.

You might try upgrading to the latest build of that version, 11.0.52, and see whether that fixes the issue.

Thanks for the reply Charles.

I suppose I could do as you suggested, but based upon my prior experience with this problem I don't think it will fix it. Plus I don't want to have to recapture the problem data when it (probably) will occur again since I've never seen in a release note where this problem was addressed. Additionally, the directory where this occurs is not always the same and the current failure location is a directory that gets updated fairly often and I don't want to make any changes to it even though I made a copy of the failing DESCRIPT.ION file.

Searching the forum, I saw where I initially reported this problem on 03/22/2009 @12:03. At the time I was using TCMD V10.00.59. At that time Rex asked me to send him my DESCRIPT.ION file, but I didn't do that because that particular file contained passwords. At that time Rex also asked about a TCC.GPF file. I just now did a FFIND /A: /S /Dcdefghijkl TC*.GP* on my system and 0 files were found so for some reason it is not being created.

On a related note, from my post of 03/22/2009 I saw that the DIR /Z worked on 4NT V8.01 (ASCII). Since I still have that installed I tried the DIR /Z command on today's failing location and it worked without any errors.

Please send the DESCRIPT.ION file to [email protected]. (The Windows error
report is useless.)

Hallo Rex,

I don't know how you do it, but this is how your quotes (and your's only) look in my Note that there a Winmail:

Please send the DESCRIPT.ION file to [email protected]. (The
Windows error report is useless.)

Please note the unquoted quotes regularly cropping up. Could your software not use quote styles like those most used here?
