Subject: combination of bash and cmd.exe causes fatal error when used under CYGWIN=tty
Date: Tue, 26 Apr 2011 03:44:00 -0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20110425140806.C10479D59FA@mail2.intersystems.com> (raw)

Greetings.

If I set CYGWIN=tty, then cygwin programs die with 
*** fatal error - couldn't initialize fd 0 for /dev/ttyN

Example:

C:\cygwin\home\lgiambro>bash -c "cmd /c 'ls'"
      0 [main] ls 7440 C:\cygwin\bin\ls.exe: *** fatal error - couldn't initiali
ze fd 0 for /dev/tty7
      0 [main] ls 7440 C:\cygwin\bin\ls.exe: *** fatal error - couldn't initiali
ze fd 0 for /dev/tty7

Corinna had mentioned that she was aware of the problem and looking for the cause in
http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2010-09/msg00237.html

Has any progress been made on this issue?  Does anyone know of a way to get around it?
