Description
When creating a buffer shape file from certain shape layers, the program crashes if I have the option selected to dissolve the buffer. I was following instructions from the tutorial section 7.2.8 using the data from the source specified, and this worked fine for the roads layer. It also works if I perform the analysis without dissolve.

    Note: The shapes generated without dissolve can then be merged into a single shape without any issues as a second step.

please attach the full datasets (the .shp file is not enough for a shapefile, you must also add the .shx, .dbf and .prj).

This should be the original layer, and all supporting files.
