I'll commit that patch later; it should fix the problem. Another workaround is to not use GDAL_LIBRARY_PATH -- just add the GDAL directory to your Windows PATH.

It seems both GEOS_LIBRARY_PATH, GDAL_LIBRARY_PATH variable not use on windows. just add GEOS, GDAl directory to Windows PATH. that worked well

Resolution: → fixed
Status: new → closed

(In [9036]) Fixed #9008 -- now use the correct library path for loading the WinDLL instance of the GDAL library.
