Bash.exe is crashing on fairly simple commands. For example, declare -r XXX=$(export)
Works for me. Maybe your export list ist too long? What's the unwrapped output of `export` for you?
There is no error message, bash.exe simply terminates. I am not able to build bash from source code because that process ultimately depends on bash itself. My environment is a Windows 11 virtual machine provided by Parallels which in turn executes on an Intel x86 iMac (apple) computer. Cygwin was working nicely for me for decades. I got into this (bad) state as follows. I upgraded my virtual machine from Windows 10 to Windows 11. Cygwin continued to work nicely. I updated cygwin itself via the usual setup-x86_64.exe program. The problem began. Reinstalling cygwin from scratch did not solve the problem. Unsurprisingly, setup-x86_64.exe always posts error messages on completion: Package: 0/Perpetual 0p_000_autorebase.dash exit code -1073741819 0p_update-info-dir.dash exit code -1073741819 Package: _/Unknown package base-files-mketc.sh exit code -1073741819 base-files-profile.sh exit code -1073741819 ca-certificates.sh exit code 139 libsasl2_3.sh exit code -1073741819 Package: z/Perpetual zp_fontconfig_dtd.dash exit code -1073741819 Any suggestions for further investigation?
