Date: Thu, 7 Dec 2000 09:27:24 +0200 MIME-Version: 1.0 X-Mailer: Internet Mail Service (5.5.2653.19) Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" Hi All I've been running Cygwin V1.1 very happily since it came out. Yesterday I tried to run sitecopy-cygwin-0.10.7.exe, which complained about missing cygintl.dll. This looked like part of gettext, which my cygwin didn't have yet, so I ran setup.exe to upgrade to the current distro (my first big cygwin upgrade). Now, all of a sudden, I get: C:\cygwin\bin\bash.exe: *** Shared region version mismatch. Version 1A != 1E. Are you using multiple versions of cygwin1.dll? Run 'cygcheck -r -s -v' to find out. (I get exactly the same error when I attempt to run 'cygcheck -r -s -v'.) I searched http://sources.redhat.com/ml/cygwin/ for 'shared and (region or regions) and (version or versions) and (mismatch or mismatched or mismatching or mismatches)'. This turned up a thread with passages like: > Haven't you seen people complaining about the "Shared region version > mismatch" error with cygwin? ( http://sources.redhat.com/ml/cygwin/2000-08/msg01243.html ) which at least shows that I'm not alone. It suggests that the problem might be having more than one copy of cygwin1.dll in the path. I have only C:\cygwin\bin\cygwin1.dll , so that doesn't seem to be my problem. Could anyone point me at how some of those other people who were complaining about shared region version mismatches resolved their problems?
