Hello, I have a problem with the ping utility on Cygwin: it keeps crashing with segmentation fault. I've checked that all my packages (including Cygwin core) are up to date. What am I missing? At any rate, I guess it should not have crashed ungracefully if it needs something it doesn't have (like a permission); instead, if should have said so and bail out with an error exit code rather than a stackdump (attached).
Thanks, Anton Lavrentiev P.S. ping -h works; ping with any IP address -- crashes $ ping 192.168.1.1 Segmentation fault (core dumped) $ cat ping.exe.stackdump Exception: STATUS_ACCESS_VIOLATION at rip=001800579D7 rax=0000000180322500 rbx=000000018031FCF8 rcx=0000000000000000 rdx=0000000000000003 rsi=0000000000000003 rdi=0000000000000003 r8 =000000000000001F r9 =00000000000000FE r10=0000000180204E70 r11=00000000FFFFC892 r12=0000000000000000 r13=0000000000000003 r14=0000000000000001 r15=0000000000000000 rbp=0000000000000018 rsp=00000000FFFFCAA0 program=C:\cygwin64\bin\ping.exe, pid 6496, thread main cs=0033 ds=002B es=002B fs=0053 gs=002B ss=002B -- 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
