Most of the time this problem is caused by having an *OLD* cygwin1.dll hanging around. Cause: You have either not done any recent updates, or you had some cygwin stuff still running at the last time you did. Try running update.exe and let it finish _while NOT running cygwin stuff_. If that doesn't help, check http://www.cygwin.com/problems.html and follow the instructions there. /Hannu E K Nevalainen, 59~14'N, 17~12'E ~ <=> degree -- --END OF MESSAGE-- -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
