Either http://cygwin.com/acronyms/#BLODA or a bad installation of bash. Try reinstalling first, then check for apps which could be interfering with Cygwin. I've tried reinstalling and no difference. I've just run cygcheck and am attaching the result. As Chris mentioned, you want to look for possible BLODA candidates. As part of that search, you can try enabling detect_bloda in your CYGWIN environment variable (see http://cygwin.com/cygwin-ug-net/using-cygwinenv.html#cygwinenv-implemented-options). You might also try trimming everything from your path but the Windows directories and see if that helps. If so, you can use a search of what's in your path to lead you to the BLODA. -- Larry _ A: Yes. > Q: Are you sure? >> A: Because it reverses the logical flow of conversation. >>> Q: Why is top posting annoying in email? -- 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
