Dear Jason,

I installed Cygwin on another Windows XP platform, this time I selected "ALL" for the setup installation. Everything appears to have been install just fine, except for when I do the "rebaseall" command. I am receiving the following error messages when I do the "rebaseall" command at the prompt:

$ rebaseall
/usr/bin/rebaseall: line 70: [: too many arguments
/usr/bin/rebaseall: line 75: [: too many arguments
/usr/bin/rebaseall: line 94: $TmpFile: ambiguous redirect
cannot read /cygdrive/c/Documents


On my laptop installation everything works just fine. What is the difference?


   Thanks in advance and best regards,
               Dean

I am trying to do the following according to your notes:

3. Due to issues with Cygwin's fork() and DLL base address conflicts,
one should rebase their Cygwin system to prevent fork() failures.  Use
the following procedure to rebase your system:

  a. install the Cygwin rebase package (if necessary)
  b. shutdown all Cygwin processes
  c. start bash (do not use rxvt)
  d. execute rebaseall (in the bash window)

I think this is why idle fails. So I did the above:

[Dean [EMAIL PROTECTED] ...ASD_work/bin]$ rebaseall
ReBaseImage (/usr/bin/cygexpat-0.dll) failed with last error = 6

What am I doing wrong here?



It appears you did not follow step b above. Did you shutdown *all* Cygwin processes include services?

Jason
