Hi Cygwin Team,
c:\ECloud\i686_win32\bin\emake.exe (6848): *** cygheap base mismatch
detected - 0x611548E0/0x1A848E0.
ERROR EC1018: Unable to load cygwin1.dll: LoadLibrary(cygwin1.dll):
Invalid access to memory location. (998)
I have doubled checked. There is only 1 cygwin1.dll file.I even did a
cygcheck to verify the same.
I even reinstalled the cygwin and even restarted the laptop, but the
issue was still there.
Can't figure out what the acutal problem is ?
But one wierd thing is happening. After doing a system restore, the
issue seems to be gone.
I guess some issue with the windows memory management.
Your urgent help would be highly appreciated.
Thanks
Ranjeet Singh
