PARDISO crashing 'sometimes' on identical imput (reproducible)

Hi. I have a project that worked using vs 2013 and an earlier version
of PARDISO. I just upgraded to vc++ from vs2015 and the current version of mkl
(already to update 2, released a few days ago).
 
Now, PARDISO crashes - sometimes - using identical input data.
 
That is, using the same parms and input values, it will sometimes
complete w/o error, sometimes on the 2nd attempt, sometimes on
the 110th and so on. Given enough attempts, it allways crashes using
that data.
 
i have extracted a small example program that shows the errror.
Basically, its a loop that reads the same data and calls pardiso. i have
tested this on various machines and the crash allways happens - not
allways after the same loopcount, but it does happen.
 
 
The resulting binary is missing the
solver DLLs that i use, but those are in the precompiled binaries zip.
 
 
To test this, the program needs the path to the data files as
1st parameter. e.g.g: "c:>mkltest d:\temp"
 
 
Any ideas what might be causing this and what i can do about this?

Is there a workaround until the update is out?

Hello. MKL 11.3.4 has been release a few weeks ago. Could you check how this update works on your side.
