RE: Any fix to cygheap_fixup_in_child failure after rebaseall?

[Bruce Dobrin]

OK, that seems to have worked.   I've only used it alone or rebase for
specific files before.  I generated a file from a find of all dll's
under /usr and /lib ( then removed the cygwin1.dll from the list).  Can
I assume the redundancy of hitting most of these 2 times will not have
any adverse effect?  With all the stuff I compile on this machine I'm
not sure how else to find them otherwise...

Thanks
Bruce

That won't work.  The argument to -T is a filename of a file containing
a list of additional files to rebase, one per line.  It can also take
'-' to mean a list on stdin.  However when you do rebaseall you want to
make sure that as few cygwin programs are invoked as possible, otherwise
you risk their DLLs being in use and the rebase will abort.  (This is
why you must run it from a plain bash CMD.EXE prompt, not rxvt or
xterm.)  Therefore you should be careful if you use '-' so that you
don't have DLLs in use.

That's not how you use it.  rebaseall already knows where to find all
installed DLLs.  The only time you should ever use -T is to supply it
with *extra* DLLs that you have installed outside of setup.exe.

Though it looks like it will work okay your way, since it will just
rebase those DLLs a second time, but it's ugly.  You could avoid the
double rebasing by either a) adding a "sort -u" to rebaseall after it
has merged the two file lists, or b) skip rebaseall and call rebase
directly with your filelist.

I did use rebaseall -T /usr/local/bin

But I've always been a bit hazy as to what the proper format for
rebaseall was....

How did you rebase mplayer?  If you didn't use 'rebaseall' with the 
'-T' flag to point to all the other Cygwin apps/DLLs that aren't 
distributed with Cygwin currently, then you won't see any improvement.

Any fix to cygheap_fixup_in_child failure after rebaseall?

[Bruce Dobrin]

Hi,

I have seen a few references to this in the mailing list,  but no
solutions were evident.

I'm building a new machine, (windows media laptop XP Pro/media center
addition 2005).  Everything is up to date.  I had compiled  the newest
version of  mplayer and all was well until I added KDE yesterday ( and
the subsequent rebaseall).  Now Mplayer gacks with 

 

4 [main] ? 3668 cygheap_fixup_in_child: Couldn't reserve 9891792 bytes
of space for cygwin's heap (0x61810000 <0xA50000>) in child, Win32 error
487

C:\cygwin\usr\local\bin\mplayer.exe (3668): *** m.AllocationBase 0x0,
m.BaseAddress 0x61810000, m.RegionSize 0x460000, m.State 0x10000

 

I tried rebasing the mplayer stuff and also recompiling.  All for
naught.  I'd hate to re install cygwin If I don't have to.

 

Thanks.

Bruce dobrin
