Hello everyone. Trying to run idle from a cygwin session on Win2k (yuk, but I must) I'm getting the following error message. It seems something more Windoze-driven that Python driven, and I'm not and don't wanna be an expert on that OS. Since the group has a good mix of users in different platforms, perhaps someone can help.
Python runs fine, my programs run fine, and I can edit in vim and run my code. However, would be nice to have idle available from time to time Thanks in advance!! $ idle 23367 [main] python2.4 1668 C:\cygwin\bin\python2.4.exe: *** fatal error - C:\ cygwin\bin\python2.4.exe: *** unable to remap C:\cygwin\bin\tk84.dll to same add ress as parent(0x18890000) != 0x18D20000 18 [main] python2.4 2236 fork: child 1668 - died waiting for dll loading, e rrno 11 Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/bin/idle", line 5, in ? main() File "/tmp/python.340/usr/lib/python2.4/idlelib/PyShell.py", line 1361, in mai n File "/tmp/python.340/usr/lib/python2.4/idlelib/PyShell.py", line 277, in open _shell File "/tmp/python.340/usr/lib/python2.4/idlelib/PyShell.py", line 962, in begi n File "/tmp/python.340/usr/lib/python2.4/idlelib/PyShell.py", line 372, in star t_subprocess File "/tmp/python.340/usr/lib/python2.4/idlelib/PyShell.py", line 350, in spaw n_subprocess File "/usr/lib/python2.4/os.py", line 552, in spawnv return _spawnvef(mode, file, args, None, execv) File "/usr/lib/python2.4/os.py", line 520, in _spawnvef pid = fork() OSError: [Errno 11] Resource temporarily unavailable As a sidenote, I sent twice this message as an email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] as instructed on the group digests, and it bounced immediately. Did this method of posting change? Thanks! Juan C. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
