How are you starting the script? From a cygwin bash shell, command prompt, or clicking on the .pl file? The references to "D:\Local\Cygwin\bin\perl.exe" make me think the script is being called through a windows mechanism instead of a cygwin one. Maybe the .dll messages mean something to someone else? -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
