I think the missing dll was cyggcc_s-1.dll (sorry, I did not take good notes). I had to copy that file from a .tar.gz to /bin by hand, then the install went thru. Apparently there is a missing dependency. Note: if you run an executable from Windows Explorer, you get a better message about what DLL is missing (MS finally did something right!). > I have been using cygwin with ease for a couple years now, but > recently things aren't quite working out. > > This issue started when I upgraded my operating system to Windows 7 64-bi= t. > > Anytime I attempt to compile a C or C++ program (cc1plus.exe in that > case), I get the above error.
