  Hi,

I experience a bad crash of the couple Postgres 9.0 + Postgis 1.5.2 on 
windows 7.

The crash of postgres occur meanwhile I run a my program executable 
that  read from a textual file many data and load them on some geometry 
tables .

This procedure is very tested because is the same that I use without any 
problem on the couple

Postgres 8.4.4 + Postgis 1.5.1 always on the same windows 7 machine.

Infact after see this crash I immediatly retry the same procedure on the 
istance of
Postgres 8.4.4 + postgis 1.5.1 on the same data and no error occur.

I see the log of postgres 9.0 and see this error.

I really think this error is due to Postgres 9.0 and no relation there 
is with Postgis 1.5.2.

But I don't know how to do to retrieve more information to understand 
what is happening.

So I like to know if there is others with these problems of an istance 
of postgres 9.0 that is hanging.

Thx,

Andrea.
