Re: 1.5.21-2 CYGWIN1.DLL Invalid Page Fault (in a new thread)

When I run commands such as ls, man, pwd, bash, cat, df and find from an MS-DOS
prompt in the C:/CYGWIN directory they fail with the invalid page fault message:

The address of failure (0167:6106bcf4) is identical for all commands. At the
suggestion of Eric Blake, I disabled virus scanning and the firewall. There was
no improvement.



As to your original assertion, what Eric said.


Here's some environment variables that may affect cygwin:
CYGWIN = 'C:\CYGWIN'


I'd recommend getting rid of this setting. It's incorrect.


Looking to see where common programs can be found, if at all...
Not Found: awk
Not Found: bash
Not Found: cat
Not Found: cp
Not Found: cpp (good!)
Not Found: crontab
Found: C:\WINDOWS\COMMAND\find.exe
Not Found: gcc
Not Found: gdb
Not Found: grep
Not Found: kill
Not Found: ld
Not Found: ls
Not Found: make
Not Found: mv
Not Found: patch
Not Found: perl
Not Found: rm
Not Found: sed
Not Found: ssh
Not Found: sh
Not Found: tar
Not Found: test
Not Found: vi
Not Found: vim

Given what you've installed, the above is not good. It indicates that the installation went awry somewhere. You should try rerunning 'setup.exe' and see if it just needs to finish installing things. If not, you may want to try removing everything and installing again.
