rebaseall invocation error
Hello, I am running rebaseall manually to enable X11: I found a post suggesting to rebase to 0x7700 I am following instructions on http://cygwin.wikia.com/wiki/Rebaseall I restarted Windows 7 (64bit) in safe mode (no networking) and opened a command prompt where I executed: cd \cygwin\bin dash PATH=. rebaseall -v I got the following error: rebaseall: only ash or dash processes are allowed during rebasing Exit all Cygwin processes and stop all Cygwin services. Execute ash (or dash) from Start/Run... or a cmd or command window. Execute '/bin/rebaseall' from ash (or dash). I get the same error from a regular Windows session (with sshd stopped, and no other cygwin processes running - as far as I can see). Are there some other Cygwing processes running? How can I check for that. Or is something else amiss? Thanks, Mirko -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple

You can't expect instructions from unrelated sites to work. You shouldn't need to use the above anymore with new improvements to reabase.

Task Manager would probably tell you if something else is running. cgf -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple

You can't expect instructions from unrelated sites to work. You shouldn't need to use the above anymore with new improvements to reabase. True. But I did not find anything else better and the instructions on that site jibed with what I read on the cygwin mailing list over the years. That's why I went with it.

After all I was certain I did not start any cygwin process. And in there I found aspell -- it was started during Windows Emacs startup. I use Emacs to write down notes during debugging. rebaseall works as advertised. cgf Mirko -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple

Just running rebaseall, as suggested by the official Cygwin FAQ is the correct advice. cgf -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
