FIX: An access violation may occur when you call the OLE IStorage::Commit method together with the STGC_CONSOLIDATE flag on a storage object on a Windows XP-based computer (919880)

The information in this article applies to:

Microsoft COM+ 1.5
Microsoft Windows XP Professional
Microsoft Windows XP Home Edition

SYMPTOMS

Consider the following scenario:

On a Microsoft Windows XP-based computer, you run an application that calls the OLE IStorage::Commit method on a storage object.
The IStorage::Commit method is called together with the STGC_CONSOLIDATE flag.

In this scenario, an access violation may occur in the Ole32.dll process. Additionally, the storage object may be corrupted.

Note This problem only occurs on FAT file systems. For example, flash drives frequently use the FAT file system. This problem does not occur on FAT32 or NTFS file systems.

CAUSE

This problem occurs because streams in transaction sets do not have their caches emptied after the IStorage::Commit method is called together with the STGC_CONSOLIDATE flag.
