I've found the problem. I found a rogue cygwin.dll that had been retained to support gunzip. Now that this file has been deleted, everything is working fine. Duh!! My thanks to those of you who tried to help. cwc ---------- From: Capron, Craig W[SMTP:craig DOT w DOT capron AT lmco DOT com] Sent: Tuesday, November 18, 1997 8:46 AM To: 'gnu-win32 AT cygnus DOT com' Subject: STATUS_ACCESS_VIOLATION when running g++ Greetings! I am new to programming and newer to Cygnus software, so I beg your sufferance. I have recently installed Cygnus' gnu-win32, b18, and everything seems to be working fine except the compiler. I've written the following simple program named 'welcome.C': // A first program in C++ #include main(){ cout << "Welcome to C++!\n"; // indicate that program ended successfully return 0; } . . . but when I ran g++ I received the following error message: (unknown) heap_init: unable to allocate heap, win32 error 87 cygwin: terminating (unknown) In cygwin_except_handler (unknown) Exception trapped! (unknown) exception C0000005 at 1001E4B2 (unknown) exception: ax 0 bx 0 cx 501 dx FFFFFFFF (unknown) exception: si 5C62696C di 5C32336E bp 241FB30 sp 241FB30 (unknown) exception is: STATUS_ACCESS_VIOLATION (unknown) Stack trace: (unknown) frame 0: sp = 0x241F964, pc = 0x1001282A (unknown) frame 1: sp = 0x241F980, pc = 0x77F94512 (unknown) frame 2: sp = 0x241F9A4, pc = 0x77F88EEB (unknown) frame 3: sp = 0x241FA30, pc = 0x77F76266 (unknown) frame 4: sp = 0x241FB30, pc = 0x10011D4D (unknown) frame 5: sp = 0x241FB44, pc = 0x10018972 (unknown) frame 6: sp = 0x241FB5C, pc = 0x10011615 (unknown) frame 7: sp = 0x241FF94, pc = 0x10011BFF (unknown) frame 8: sp = 0x241FFA0, pc = 0x4118D5 (unknown) frame 9: sp = 0x241FFB0, pc = 0x40103B (unknown) frame 10: sp = 0x241FFC0, pc = 0x77F1B304 (unknown) frame 11: sp = 0x241FFF0, pc = 0x0 (unknown) End of stack trace (unknown) In cygwin_except_handler (unknown) Error while dumping state (probably corrupted stack) (unknown) In cygwin_except_handler (unknown) Error while dumping state (probably corrupted stack) (unknown) In cygwin_except_handler (Blah, blah, blah, . . . repeats the last two lines ad nauseum) I have run it from both the bash and the CMD prompt with the same results. I'm assuming that I've got something misconfigured somewhere, but I've looked in all the places I know to look and I'm just not finding it. I hope this looks familiar to someone. My system is an IBM PC350, 133-Mhz Pentium running Windows NT Server v4.0 with service pack 3 installed.
