fhandler_base::dup failed error after upgrade to 1.5.11-1
I ran into a problem after installing updates. I removed cygwin and reinstalled and now have a fresh installation of 1.5.11-1 using setup.exe 2.427. I tried the following command in bash: tidy contrib.html con.html Which gave the following error: 479975353 [main] bash 4024 fhandler_base::dup: dup(/home/Matthew Moss/con.html) failed, handle 2F, Win32 error 87 bash: con.html: Invalid argument Strangely, any of the following worked fine: tidy contrib.html c.html tidy contrib.html co.html tidy contrib.html cont.html Only when I redirected to con.html did I get that error. I get a similar error simply doing this: cat contrib.html con.html Which again, strangely, works for other target filenames. -- 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/
