Dave Cottlehuber created COUCHDB-1482:
-----------------------------------------

             Summary: Snappy NIF cannot be loaded on Windows 2008 R2 x64 Server
                 Key: COUCHDB-1482
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/COUCHDB-1482
             Project: CouchDB
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Build System
    Affects Versions: 1.2
         Environment: Windows 2008 R2 x64 Server but *not* any other Windows platform
            Reporter: Dave Cottlehuber
             Fix For: 1.2.1


Initially it looks like there is a difference in how Windows resolves DLL dependencies for the required C++ runtimes. The snappy NIF is the only one with included C++ code, and it depends on both debug & release DLLs. On W2008R2 server this prevents loading, but on Windows 7 it does not. 

My eternal thanks go to Nick North for uncovering this gem.
