Recently, when trying to run various programs (e.g., xterm, emacs, subversion), I often get a message of the following type: 4 [main] xterm 4640 exception::handle: Exception: STATUS_ACCESS_VIOLATION 496 [main] xterm 4640 open_stackdumpfile: Dumping stack trace to xterm.exe.stackdump
The context of the file xterm.exe.stackdump is: Exception: STATUS_ACCESS_VIOLATION at eip=610202F7 eax=00CE00F8 ebx=61229E44 ecx=7530783F edx=002D20F0 esi=00000000 edi=0022FA14 ebp=61020A10 esp=0022C7E4 program=C:\cygwin\bin\xterm.exe, pid 4640, thread main cs=001B ds=0023 es=0023 fs=003B gs=0000 ss=0023 Stack trace: Frame Function Args End of stack trace In attempt to pin down the problem, I reinstalled cygwin from scratch, using setup.exe with noting but the default setting + xinit. When trying to open an xterm window (from an existing one) I often get the aforementioned message. (In fact, many times I get multiple copies of these two lines.) I think that this problem has nothing to do with the problem reported to be solved in http://sourceware.org/ml/cygwin/2010-01/msg00632.html This is because: (1) the tsaware flag is set for xterm; and (2) my windows 7 is in "Turn on DEP for essential Windows programs and services only" mode. Any suggestions? Thanks, Yuval The cygcheck.out and /var/log/XWin.0.log files are attached.
