I reproduced it again. The error messages are as follows: ./myscript.sh: line 32: /usr/bin/cut: Cannot allocate memory ./myscript.sh: line 32: /usr/bin/md5sum: Cannot allocate memory ./myscript.sh: line 32: /usr/bin/grep: Cannot allocate memory 1 [main] sh 437152 fork: child -1 - CreateProcessW failed for 'C:\cygwin\bin\sh.exe', errno 12 ./myscript.sh: fork: Cannot allocate memory ...and the script aborts at that point. So, this totally confirms everyone's responses that the issue is related to forking.
