I had previously been having occasional crashes/hangs of cat.exe over the years, but this is the first time I've ever gotten an error message: cygwin error: 0 [fifo_reader] cat 11398 C:\cygwin\bin\cat.exe: *** fatal error - Can't add a client handler, Win32 error 123 cat here is reading from a fifo created with mkfifo. I've only encountered it once (out of daily runs over the last couple weeks) and don't know how to replicate it. Possibly a race? Looks like my script has tried to mitigate this with a sleep 1 between the mkfifo and the fork: cat < $fifo & I only encounter this issue on Cygwin (it has always worked fine without the sleep on Linux and MacOS). -- Chris -- Problem reports: https://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: https://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: https://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: https://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
