Hi
I have a cygwin terminal window open and I try to execute a perl program
and get the following message:
=======
5 [main] perl 8172 C:\cygwin\bin\perl.exe: *** fatal error -
cygheap base mismatch detected - 0x61239790/0xC79790.
This problem is probably due to using incompatible versions of the
cygwin DLL.
Search for cygwin1.dll using the Windows Start->Find/Search facility
and delete all but the most recent version. The most recent version
*should*
reside in x:\cygwin\bin, where 'x' is the drive on which you have
installed the cygwin distribution. Rebooting is also suggested if you
are unable to find another cygwin DLL.
=======
The cygwin1.dll is in the c:\cygwin\bin directory and additionally on a
different place at c:\Program Files\openFT\bin\cygwin1.dll which is not
in my PATH.
(Both files are identical).
At the time of the error I had a second cygwin terminal already open.
After the failure in the first window I executed the command in the
second one and it executed successfully.
The funny thing is: If I try in the first window again, it runs fine....
a) Why?
b) What do I have to change to make it run always?
Things I tried:
Reboot, rebaseAll.
System:
Windows 7 Enterprise Ver 6.1 Build 7600

2586k 2010/08/31 C:\cygwin\bin\cygwin1.dll
Cygwin DLL version info:
