Remove g77. This is causing issues with Cygwin. Cygwin has g77 as a package anyway, so you will not need as separate installation. 2. Remove the second instance of 'C:\Cygwin\bin' in your path. This is just causing the system to look in that path twice, instead of once only. Now, about the Cygwin1.dll issue. Have you looked in C:\Windows\System32 for the dynamic library link file itself?

Minimal deployment
Hi, I hope this is the right place to ask; if not feel free to flame ;) I wish to deploy a minimal cygwin to allow the use of cygwin's version perl. What is the minimal fileset I need to deploy?

Re: multiple cygwin1.dll message
Got it! I finally got rid of c:\windows\system32\cygwin1.dll by cd-ing there in cygwin, seeing it (finally!) and deleting it. It wouldn't delete because it was write protected, but it prompted me for Y/N, and Y got rid of it. (perhaps the developers could add this test/prompt during normal upgrade/installs when it prompts for deleting it? Would have saved the day for me!). Anyway, a Windows search did not find it, I didn't visually see it in the directory, and my cygwin "find" I may have missed the filesystem in cygwin's nomenclature. But it did seem to be "hidden" in Windows. Thanks to all who helped! I upgraded to the latest cygwin versions too. And rebooted. I see I can now make C and Fortran programs again. However, my Bourne shell script has broken. Sigh. If I can't figure that out I'll post a new query.

But it did seem >to be "hidden" in Windows. So to recap: 1) There was no reason to do a Windows search since two tools told you exactly where the offending DLL was. 2) You didn't need to use Cygwin to get rid of it. Any windows tool would have sufficed. 3) You previously installed a poorly-behaved 3PP which installed cygwin1.dll in a non-recommended location and then compounded the problem by hiding it. The Cygwin DLL in c:\windows\system32 was not placed there by any official cygwin package. >However, my Bourne shell script has broken. Sigh. If I can't figure >that out I'll post a new query. My crystal ball says that you probably have \r\n line endings in some shell script. You can install dos2unix to eliminate these. cgf -- 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/
Setting $HOME ?
I was running CygWin for a while and all was nice. One day, I ran CygWin and it did not start me in the correct $HOME directory. Checking env, both $HOME and $HOMEPATH are wrong. How are those set? Manually setting the two in the cygwin.bat doesn't get it to run %HOMEPATH%/.bashrc on login. Changing the chdir in the batch file fixes $HOME but not $HOMEPATH and also doesn't get .bashrc to run. Tried `id -un` and checking etc/passwd. Looks right. Any ideas?
