I'm having a problem with recent snapshots, including the 20110616 snapshot. I normally start ssh-agent using keychain as part of my bash startup. The problem I have is that once the bash process that starts the ssh-agent process exits, subsequent starts of mintty fail.
Here's an example: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- C:\Users\drothe>uname -a CYGWIN_NT-6.1-WOW64 tela64 1.7.10s(0.248/5/3) 20110616 23:01:21 i686 Cygwin C:\Users\drothe>bash --norc bash-4.1$ mintty bash --norc -c 'ssh-agent' bash-4.1$ mintty bash --norc ---------------------------------------------------------------------- That last start of mintty fails with the message "Failed to fork child process: No such file or directory." This is happening on my Win7 64-bit installation and my WinXP Pro 32-bit installation. -- David Rothenberger ---- daver...@acm.org The Second Law of Thermodynamics: If you think things are in a mess now, just wait! -- Jim Warner -- 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
