The Usual Tech Ramblings

Avaya, Windows 2003, and Data Execution Prevention

Windows 2003 comes with enhanced security for application in the way of Data Execution Prevention. This causes issues with some applications. One of them is Avaya IPOffice Call Status. When attempting to start the application, the following error is generated:

EAccessViolation

Nothing else is logged, so debugging is a little difficult. After digging around a bit, I stumbled across this little gem. It appears I’m not the only one, but this certainly resolves the issue.
