I would say yes. It seems you are using windows - running debug builds of python on windows start a dialog box that allows to attach the MSVC debugger to the running program. Usually this allows to locate the error fairly quickly. As you have discovered, the problem is that you need to build all the extensions that you use in debug mode otherwise you cannot use them. If you cannot rebuild the extensions you have to reproduce the crash in a script that doesn't use these extensions. Thomas -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
