I'll take a look at this issue, seems to be somewhere in the Rust engine. Could you post your config file so I can try to reproduce this?

Also just to confirm, are you using the latest release?

Yes I am uisng latest releawe. The config file is as below

I've located and fixed the crashing issue in the rust engine.

I'll set up a sql db this weekend to try and reproduce that issue. Are you working with an azure sql instance or running your own server?

[nikhiltalati]

I have my own server

Hello,

Any update when you will release patched version.

Thanks
