The right command should be:

Thanks again, Marco. Unfortunately, still no joy after redoing you rebaseall& peflagsall statements and rebooting. I got the same error as before:

octave:1>  plot(1:5,1:5)
       9 [main] octave-3.4.2 5952 child_info_fork::abort: address space needed by
       'cellfun.oct' (00570000) is already occupied
error: popen2: process creation failed -- Resource temporarily unavailable
error: called from:

I suspect your Windows 7 Enterprise 64-bit is using more space than rebaseall and cygwin expects.

After the plot error could you check the octave PID with
ps and attach a copy of

/proc/OCTAVE_PID/maps
file ?


It should give us an idea of unavailable address space on your system due to the MS system and other programs dll's.

Marco
