Hello,
I have recently installed cygwin, and during the installation received a
series of crashes for "bash.exe" - standard Windows XP exception errors.
However, all the files were copied to i:\dev\cygwin, and if I attempt to
carry out any command in that directory, I receive the same error - at
least for any command I have tried. Below is the cygcheck, however
please note that id.exe crashed with the same error, so some of it may
be missing.
I have tried running with Avast AV off, and with Outpost firewall off,
and I have tried just copying the following files to c:\cygwin to see if
a more standard dir location would help:
07/12/2006 01:17 484,352 bash.exe
23/10/2006 10:44 999,424 cygiconv-2.dll
23/10/2006 11:23 31,744 cygintl-8.dll
15/11/2006 18:21 242,688 cygncurses-8.dll
16/12/2006 10:50 157,696 cygreadline6.dll
14/11/2006 03:48 1,872,347 cygwin1.dll
However, I got the same error. I did a search for any other cygwin
dlls, and there were some applications that had their own installed, off
the path, and in their own folders. They shouldn't have made a
difference, but I deleted them anyway. It didn't help.
The XP installation is relatively new - I rebuilt it recently, and the
previous build didn't have any issues with cygwin, and this build is
essentially the same in any respect that I can think would make a
difference.
Any ideas on how I can troubleshoot this?
