Yaakov's problem should be fixed in the latest snapshot.  Given the
nature of the problem, it is possible that there are other cases
lurking.

So, please try the snapshot and, if you still see the problem, Cygwin
will now produce a stackdump file.  If so, please send it along here.
It's not going to be very large.

Do you have a test case?  I tried to make one but it didn't fail for

Barring that can you try building a version of the dll with
TP_NUM_W_BUFS set to 11, 12, 13, etc.  to see if that fixes the problem?
It is barely possible that the number is too small now.

I don't see how fork would exacerbate any problem here as Corinna
concluded in the email that you cite since it seems like no destructors
would or should ever be called by fork().

There is a similar post from 2009 where the conclusion is that this
can be caused by very deep forking
(http://readlist.com/lists/cygwin.com/cygwin/6/34359.html). Is it
possible that the make script does very deep, or is stuck in infinite,
recursion?

 I wonder if the 'test' procedure for latex2hmtl sets the $PATH to your
 installed LaTeX implementation.

 Or worse, somehow sets a PERL5_INCPATH variable to point at the
 perl/lib/ directory under G:\LATEX\.  If THAT happened, then your
 cygwin-perl would be trying to use native-perl's libraries (including
 binary extensions)...

 Try, temporarily, moving G:/LATEX/perl out of the way.

 Ok, I did. I renamed my windows perl folder, but I still get the same error.

 May be someone can try to install Latex2html on their cygwin as I did
 and try this? May be this has nothing to do with windows 64 bit or
 windows 7, so any windows version might show this problem as well?

 Installation of l2h is easy on cygwin, just need to download l2h and
 untar and type  ./configure, make, make install, make test

 Instructions how to install l2h on cygwin are on my page below:

 http://12000.org/my_notes/l2hwin/index.htm

 (need to edit one file, to make sure to tell l2h is under Unix)

 Not many people use l2h under cygwin, may be I am the first to try to do
 this on cygwin 1.7?

If someone using windows 7 out there, can install Latex2html with the 
current cygwin, they should be able to reproduce this bug (may be this 
is already done, I do not know).


If they can't reproduce it, then this means there is something else on 
my PC which is causing it.

 Hello Rieni;

 I went to make a report, but not able to find where to do that. I went in
 circles looking for a link.

At the link above you'll see in bold
Run cygcheck -s -v -r  cygcheck.out and include cygcheck.out as an
attachment in your report. Please do not compress or otherwise encode
the output. Just attach it as a straight text file so that it can be
easily viewed.

So that we can you see your environment.

 But what I did is document it all here, under the cygwin section
 http://12000.org/my_notes/l2hwin/index.htm
 Please feel free to use this as the report.

Great.

So it looks like we can make cygwin even more slower,
eh, fix that in perl core for Win64 cygwin only,
to sleep some milliseconds after a fork.
We I need a confirmation because I cannot repro it.

Do you have any process hook application running,
such as an antivir SW listed in BLODA?

Do you have any process hook application running,
such as an antivir SW listed in BLODA?
http://cygwin.com/faq/faq.using.html#faq.using.bloda



Yes, I have NOD32 Antivirus, 64 bit version running on my PC. Version 
4.2.4, windows 7 home premium 64 bit on intel i7-930.


btw, That list seems to list every anti-virus software out there :)

I'll go turn off nod32 real time protection now for one minute while I 
run the test again to see if it makes a difference



ok, I am back.

Turned off nod32, run the test, and the problem is STILL there.


thanks

Yes, I have the windows version of perl (Active Perl 5.1) and cygwin own 
perl.


What is wrong with this? I need the windows version to be able to use 
latex2html on windows, since I am not able to use latex2html installed 
on cygwin.


Can't one install different perl on windows if they have cygwin with its 
own perl? cygwin perl comes before windows perl.  windows perl is on 
windows path (defined by using windows, outside cygwin).

I wonder if the 'test' procedure for latex2hmtl sets the $PATH to your
installed LaTeX implementation.

Or worse, somehow sets a PERL5_INCPATH variable to point at the
perl/lib/ directory under G:\LATEX\.  If THAT happened, then your
cygwin-perl would be trying to use native-perl's libraries (including
binary extensions)...

Try, temporarily, moving G:/LATEX/perl out of the way.

Ok, I did. I renamed my windows perl folder, but I still get the same error.

May be someone can try to install Latex2html on their cygwin as I did 
and try this? May be this has nothing to do with windows 64 bit or 
windows 7, so any windows version might show this problem as well?


Installation of l2h is easy on cygwin, just need to download l2h and 
untar and type  ./configure, make, make install, make test


Instructions how to install l2h on cygwin are on my page below:

http://12000.org/my_notes/l2hwin/index.htm

(need to edit one file, to make sure to tell l2h is under Unix)

Not many people use l2h under cygwin, may be I am the first to try to do 
this on cygwin 1.7?

This looks like an internal error in Cygwin which runs out of TLS

PERLDB_OPTS is only for the perl debugger, which you don't run I suppose.
Corinna wanted a strace for perl, around the section where the fork 
fails. It must not be the whole 2GB.


To build a debugging perl you'd need the source package and run
./build --debug
But this won't be needed I suppose, as it's a cygwin error around fork.


Looking at out.txt, the output around the crash is below. It seems to
come after exec($cmd). It looks like it can't spawn a new process.

btw, this is windows 7. new PC, 8 GM ram.

fails. It must not be the whole 2GB.

To build a debugging perl you'd need the source package and run
./build --debug
But this won't be needed I suppose, as it's a cygwin error around fork.



Ok, thanks for letting me know.


Looking at out.txt, the output around the crash is below. It seems to
come after exec($cmd). It looks like it can't spawn a new process.

btw, this is windows 7. new PC, 8 GM ram.


UAC already tried to disable?



do not know. If this is something I can check on my end or something, 
pls let me know. This is a new PC, and I did not change any UAC settings 
on it.  All default setting on windows 7.



If you need the complete file out.txt, I can send it to you directly.

Corinna



I tried doing

strace -o logfile make test

but the output was too large, and the make seems to become slower and 
slower, after the file got to be over 2 GB and still growing, I killed 
everything.


So, I tried this next:

edited the Makefile and added  -d to the perl command in the Makefile, 
then typed


$ export PERLDB_OPTS=NonStop frame=2
make test

This below is a small part of the screen output around the perl crash, 
may be this will help?


again, i am not familar with perl or debugging it, but will be happy to 
help, if you have some specific instructions I can try.

I got a little more useful output using this:

cygwin 1.7.5, perl *** fatal error TP_NUM_W_BUFS too smal

2010-06-03 Thread nma

Hello,

SUMMARY:

I installed cygwin 1.7.5 on windows 7 (64 bit OS), and when I run some  
command which uses perl, I get the following error:


0 [main] perl 2528 C:\cygwin\bin\perl.exe: *** fatal error - Internal  
error: TP_NUM_W_BUFS too small.



DETAILS:

I installed cygwin, all of it on windows 7, 64 bit os.
All went ok.

Then I installed latex2html, and I am trying to use latex2html under  
cygwin, which uses perl. (latex2hml is a PERL script)


When I run latex2html command on some latex file, I get many of the  
above errors each time perl is called:

Yeah, I am.  Perhaps it's just a red-herring.  A quick check doesn't
indicate anything is missing.  I'd say just ignore it or uninstall it
(unless you need SWF support).

That's possible.  I haven't dug into 'cygcheck' source to look for the
real answer.  I only did a quick verify with:

  zcat /etc/setup/perl-ming.lst.gz | xargs ls -1

I did this from '/'.  But since 'cygcheck' doesn't use Cygwin, there
could be file name issues there.

I'll send email to the latex2html mailing list to see if someone there 
knows anything.  If anyone has any suggestion to try, I'll do it. I am 
at a loss now what to do. I'll try to use my windows perl from inside 
cygwin, but I was trying to avoid doing this due to many problems this 
can cause. Should I try building cygwin from sources on my PC?


I tried running perl on some small script (hello world) and no problem, 
it works ok.

Debugging it further would certainly be helpful.  But if you don't actually
want to build Cygwin from source, you can always use a recent snapshot with
its source and debugging information as a shortcut.

I did. I installed the latest snapshot from http://cygwin.com/snapshots/

cygwin-inst-20100602.tar.bz2

Followed instructions on

http://www.cygwin.com/faq/faq.setup.html#faq.setup.snapshots

started the cygwin shell again:

$ uname -a
CYGWIN_NT-6.1-WOW64 me-PC 1.7.5s(0.227/5/3) 20100602 12:11:53 i686 Cygwin

Run make again, and I still get the same perl error.

I do not know perl much at all. I wonder if there is a way to turn some 
perl global debugging somehow, may be if there is a perl message files, 
that will help find the problem? I need to google this.


I am not running perl directly, it is being called from within the 
latex2html makefile.


Next step for me I suppose is to see if I can use my windows perl 
installation (Active Perl 5.1) from inside cygwin instead of the cygwin 
perl.

Actually, my thought was to install the complete source and debugging
symbols from http://cygwin.com/snapshots/ too so that you could set a
breakpoint in the code that issues the error and get a better understanding
as to why.  For that, you don't need to know or even debug Perl (one would
hope ;-) ).
