I have been having all kinds of problems with cygwin recently that have manifested themselves with some the of the following errors:
- stack write copy failed, 0x22E960..0x230000, done 0, windows pid 2287764, Win32 error 5 bash: fork: No error - fatal error - couldn't allocate heap, Win32 error 487 - Post install shell scripts not completing etc. - ++++++ more ... what a gong show! I think that I have located the source of the heap allocation problem (at least in my case) and it appears to be the Logitech camera driver. I noticed that all processes loaded a DLL (LVPrcInj.dll - Logitech Helper DLL) and that when the sh.exe and bash.exe processes hung, there was a thread that was spending a lot of time in RtlConvertUiListToApiList(). Now that I have removed the driver, cygwin appears to be working correctly again. I am not sure if this is the cause of other peoples problems in this area, but they want to verify if the have V9 of the Logitech drivers installed? I have another machine with a similar configuration and older Logitech drivers and it appears to work Ok. Hopefully this helps in tracking down the heap problems or solves the heap problem????
