g00r00,
Since you moved back to Free Pascal 3.02 I tested out a server/headless edition of linux and the msgread.mpy works! This was not the case
before and maybe due to the newer version of free pascal and the
libraries it was using?
Yeah there is something going on with Free Pascal I've even found some issues with 3.0.2 but they're not as a bad as 3.0.4 which flat out doesn't work in some areas.
Glad to hear it fixes things up.
