Hi Ben, Thats interesting. Here are some thoughts: Is there always a crash after 4? Is it the same 4 forms? e.g. If you just created 4 other sample forms and used those do you get the same crash after 4? Do you think its something to do with form number 4? e.g. it didnt like diary fields or

Hi Danny, I haven't done much investigation. I expect there is a core but it will be relatively useless without source. I haven’t run arserver under any of the tracing utilities. I do run with server tracing on but truth to tell, I haven't inspected them. As I said, it is on random forms

Hi Ben, The core actually can help. You will find the function names recognisable to us that work with the api. I was thinking you might see a a createfield then then something like a malloc error on null etc. I have found a few bugs in my time with that. Work a look. Data should not matter. My

One time I had a problem because there was an existing alias with the same name as the group I was trying to rename. Hope that makes sense. I found this by looking through the list of forms that get updated when a Support Group name is changed. Also, you might want to check out SW00346842 or

Rebecca, big thanks, I found exactly the same situation you described. The alias caused all the trouble. Even after deleting it, wizard would stay at Pending for all it's tasks, so I deleted the DLD:Lock entry and tried to rerun it. That caused a bit of data mess for the renamed group.
