Yes, fair enough.

After the build completes, from the build root, run libtool --mode=execute gdb --args samples/SAXCount samples/data/personal.xml At the GDB prompt, type catch throw then run It will stop, saying exception thrown. To generate the stack trace, type bt full There will likely be several screens of data. If you could please copy/paste them all. Once you're back at the gdb prompt, that's the end of that trace. Because there may be multiple exceptions thrown (including as part of normal operation), I'd appreciate a stack trace of all of them. Unfortunately, I don't know how many there will be. On my (working) system there's only one before successful completion. Hopefully there won't be much more than two on the failing system, but depending on the failure there could be several. >From the gdb prompt, typing continue will continue execution until the next exception, at which point you can repeat from the "bt full" step above. Once you get a message saying the process exited, it's done, and you can exit by typing quit This will hopefully help me to isolate this issue. Thanks for your help. Bill
