We often will get errors like the following: 1) abnormal program termination C:\TEMP\make7078823.sh: fork failed: no child processes [1] 2)0 [main] sh 71664 child_info_fork::abort: address space needed by 'cyggccs- 1.dll' (69130000) is already occupied c:/programme/cygwin/bin/sh: fork: Resource temporarily unavailable 3) child_info_fork::abort: address space needed by 'DBI.dll' (00CF0000) is already occupied We use cygwin 1.7.9 with snapshot "cygwin-inst-20110829.tar.bz2". I did a complete rebaseall and peflagsall. rebaseall was patched to ignore files in /usr/x86_64-w64-mingw32/sys- root/mingw/bin. But it seems something is still wrong. All other found postings concerning this problem described that doing a rebaseall/peflagsall will solve thies problems. Perhaps other user can give me some more hints. best regards Heiko Elger -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
