I've been running into a strange "error" lately (that is, I first noticed it for sure on 1.7.10, but it MIGHT have occurred also on 1.7.9. It persists on 1.7.11). cygcheck -- and *only* cygcheck -- is reporting a cygheap base mismatch but only on an XP64 machine: $ cygcheck -cd cygwin 1 [main] cygcheck (3756) C:\cygwin\bin\cygcheck.exe: *** fatal error - cygheap base mismatch detected - 0x61270870/0x2170870. This problem is probably due to using incompatible versions of the cygwin DLL. Search for cygwin1.dll using the Windows Start->Find/Search facility and delete all but the most recent version. The most recent version *should* reside in x:\cygwin\bin, where 'x' is the drive on which you have installed the cygwin distribution. Rebooting is also suggested if you are unable to find another cygwin DLL. Cygwin Package Information Package Version cygwin 1.7.11-1 (Note that cygcheck actually *does* complete the requested command, after the error message from (cygwin1.dll/dcrt0.cc?) is printed. However, a full search of C:\ shows no other cygwin1.dll except C:\cygwin\bin. An explicit search of every directory in $PATH also shows no cygwin1.dll except the expected one. Similarly, I *can* run cygcheck -svr -- it just complains before printing the requested info. See attached [slightly redacted]. (Note again, only one cygwin1.dll present). I don't see this behavior on other (XP32) machines on the same network. Any idea what's going on? Could it have something to do with operating under WOW64 (as 32bit cygwin must)? -- Chuck
