To whom it may concern, I am trying to run a program that requires both the bash shell and tcsh shell of Cygwin, along with many different tools that are not part of the default installation package. I had installed the default cygwin a few months ago, and then last night I updated my installation to add the dos2unix tools (namely, I needed d2u.exe, diff.exe, sdiff.exe and u2d.exe, which I was able to add in the update). I am still missing the tools ar.exe and make.exe. However, when I added the tools, I also started getting the following error message in my cygwin window upon startup. 1 [main] uname (1516) C:\cygwin64\usr\local\bin\uname.exe: *** fatal error - cygheap base mismatch detected - 0x1802E1408/0x1802DD408. 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. -bash: [: =: unary operator expected
You seems to have a very weird mount table C:\cygwin64\usr\local / system binary,auto C:\cygwin64\usr\local\bin /usr/bin system binary,auto C:\cygwin64\usr\local\lib /usr/lib system binary,auto cygdrive prefix /cygdrive user binary,auto my one looks like E:\cygwin64 / system binary,auto E:\cygwin64\bin /usr/bin system binary,auto E:\cygwin64\lib /usr/lib system binary,auto cygdrive prefix /cygdrive user binary,auto Have you installed cygwin multiple times in different places ? Cygwin installations found in the registry: System: Key: e022582115c10879 Path: C:\cygwin64 User: Key: e022582115c10879 Path: C:\cygwin64 User: Key: e9b5963264e345a0 Path: C:\cygwin64\usr\local I doubt the double intersecting installations behave very well... First use regedit to remove at least this one User: Key: e9b5963264e345a0 Path: C:\cygwin64\usr\local than eventually reinstall some of the packages.
In summary, I am asking if someone will help me clear up these error messages and also tell me which packages I need to install to get the tools ar.exe and make.exe.
ar.exe is in binutils make.exe is in make (of course) https://cygwin.com/cgi-bin2/package-grep.cgi?grep=%2Fmake.exe&arch=x86_64 https://cygwin.com/cgi-bin2/package-grep.cgi?grep=%2Far.exe&arch=x86_64
