When we try, we receive the following message C:\cygwin>Cygwin.bat 0 [main] bash 8968 C:\cygwin\bin\bash.exe: *** fatal error - = console device allocation failure - too many consoles in use, max = consoles is 32=20 This doesn't happen to other systems also using W2008R2, which are using = older versions of cygwin (1.7.15) but I cannot find the difference. The = troubling ones are using C:\cygwin\bin>uname -a CYGWIN_NT-6.1-WOW64 SYSTEM_NAME 1.7.17(0.262/5/3) 2012-10-19 14:39 i686 = Cygwin=20 =20 I've looked around using google, but the only reference to this message = appears in the cygwin source code. Can someone give me clue?
