As soon as I changed the crontab command to: * * * * * bash --login -c 'perl -e "use GD;"' >& /usr/tmp/test.log It worked. -----Original Message----- From: Liora Milbaum Sent: Tuesday, August 29, 2006 18:03 To: cygwin AT cygwin DOT com Subject: RE: Windows popup/message box? Igor, I investigated this issue a little more. I changed my cron command to: * * * * * perl -e 'use GD;' >& /usr/tmp/test.log Here is the content of the test.log file: "Can't load '/usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8/cygwin/auto/GD/GD.dll' for module GD: No such file or directory at /usr/lib/perl5/5.8/cygwin/DynaLoader.pm line 230. at -e line 1 Compilation failed in require at -e line 1. BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at -e line 1." The only issue here that the perl module tries to load a dll file. It works just fine from the command line. I think that it is a bug of cygwin cron or cygwin perl. I have also tried to use the perl2exe for this command but it didn't work. Perl2exe doesn't work with cygwin perl. I am in a dead end.

Liora, Sorry, no, I didn't spend much more time on this, as it wasn't something that affected me directly, but rather a curious failure I've discovered by accident. Since you're obviously interested in getting this fixed, perhaps you could help Reini track this down further. And, to answer Reini's question: I still see the same problem after a rebaseall. You might want to try this anyway, to see if it fixes things for you.
