RE: Re: Tortoise Crashing when proxy not configured properly - not able to change it either

Stefan,

I have the following version based on a copy from the "about" dialog...
TortoiseSVN 1.5.4, Build 14259 - 32 Bit , 2008/10/11 08:23:13

I have executed the command noted below and have attached the zip file.

The crash occurs when I click on the network tab (found under the settings
menu option). Maybe the network tab contacts the repository at that point?

I hope this helps.

Thanks again!

Steve Chadwick

What version of TSVN are you using?
The crashdump indicates a line in the source which is only called when
creating a repository - which is definitely not happening in the settings
dialog.

Also, try using this command instead:
.dump /mFhutwd c:\TSVN.dmp;q

this will create a bigger dump file, not sure how big though. If it's still
reasonably small, please send that file (i.e., if its < 500kb zipped).
