gnu cash crashing

[Edward Hardy]

This is the earliest version of the trace file that I can find:

* 11:27:32  WARN <qof.engine> [guid_init()] only got 1639 bytes.
The identifiers might not be very random.
* 11:27:42  WARN <gnc.app-utils> Could not spawn perl: Failed to execute 
child process (No such file or directory)

Here are contents of trace file

Sorry, should have said;

Running GC 2.6 on Windows7.

Further info: GC now crashes each time I run a report with same error 
messages. Other operations seem fine, e.g. entering an expense and saving.


Hi there

- Ran a P&L report.
- Tried changing the accounting period in Preferences.
- Tried refreshing the report
- GnuCash crashed.

- Now when I open the file (every time)
"GnuCash could not obtain the lock file."
Then I click "Open Anyway"
Then I try and run a report
"This application has requested the runtime to terminate it in an 
unusual way. "

Any ideas?

Best
