Dear Christoph,
I'm currently traveling, hence only a quick reply.
Most probably, the reason that your haven't receive any answer to your question, yet, is that noone seems to have an answer, yet.
Looking at your report, again, I do have a couple of questions and suggestions (inlined below) that might help you and us to locate the origin of your problem.

Dear Mr. Manegold,
i have a problem with MonetDB and i sent my problem to the user-mailing list. Unfortunately nobody answered on my topic and this is a few weeks ago and i wasn't the first to mail the problem.
So i decided to contact someone of the cwi-team directly and i hope you are able to help me in some way.
Here the message i sent to the mailing list:
Hi everybody,
I posted my issue a few weeks ago, but i got no answer, so i try i again.
I installed MonetDB on Windows with the geom module and
Which version of MonetDB are you using/talking about?
afterwards i tried to execute a query with some geometric data types. But after a few changes to the query and execution i got an error.
What data did you load? What kind of queries did you run? Which error did you get?
After that i had to restart MonetDB but i got an error message that the system tables couldn`t be loaded.
Could you quote the exact error message?
If i start the server without geom support it starts fine but the sql client can`t connect:
"Connection terminated Press any key to continue . . . "
Does the server continue running, or does it crash in that case? If the latter, is there any error message on the server console/window? If so, which?
If i start the server with geom support it loads the sql and geom modules but shuts down after that without error message.
Could you try running the server on a new empty database? Does that work? If so, could you then replay the steps you did before to see, whether you can reproduce the crash and (potential) corruption of the database?
Even a reinstall didn't fix it so the error must be somewhere else.
did you remove your database before/after the reistall, or are you (still) using the same (possibly corrupoted) database?
Has anyone an idea about that?
Please help, Thanks.
I would be grateful for an answer, Christoph
Hope this helps for now ...
Stefan
