Hi all, I have been looking around for a possible cause for my problem with bash. I left a "tail -f" running for a few days. When I came back, none of the service would run anymore (cygsrv, exim, sshd). After a bit of researching I've come accross quite a few posts but nothing concrete.
It seems that bash.exe is crashing with a WFSO longjmp error after the 5min timeout. Preventing everything else. From some posts, it seems it could be coming from a device (webcam) or a software such as the anti-virus. I have almost nothing installed on this machine aside from MySQL and Tomcat5. Its a Xeon server running Windows 2003 server. Here is the actual error for bash. C:\cygwin\bin> 4 [main] bash 3376 C:\cygwin\bin\bash.exe: *** fatal error - WFSO timed out after longjmp Some people have been suggesting to try a rebaseall. Same thing happens, I get two errors, a fhandler_base::fork_fixup immediately and an WFSO longjmp error after 5 min. Here are the errors: C:\cygwin\bin> 4 [main] ash 1328 fhandler_base::fork_fixup: /bin/rebaseall - Win32 error 5, handle io_handle<0x0> C:\cygwin\bin> 4 [main] ash 1856 C:\cygwin\bin\ash.exe: *** fatal error - WFSO timed out after longjmp I've also updated cygwin to the latest version and reinstalled bash and cygsrv. No changes, same errors. If someone has an idea, please let me know. I'm at a loss and can't figure what to do next.
