Any update on this? I am having the same problem, and have had to go back to Cygwin 1.5. A very simple command like this does not work: echo "select * from mytable" | unix2dos | sqlcmd -S server -U sa -P mypassword -d myDatabase As you can see I'm trying to force the data hitting sqlcmd to be in dos mode but somehow I suspect it is getting put into linux-mode line endings before hitting sqlcmd. The error response is "Error: Internal error at ReadTextLine (Reason: Not Specified)" This command from an NT command shell works: echo "select * from mytable" | sqlcmd -S server -U sa -P mypassword -d myDatabase My mount in /etc/fstab is text, I tried binary, that seems to not help. any ideas? -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
