Cygwin cygheap base mismatch detected error. Cygwin 1.5.18 XP SP3

[ranjeet kandari]

Hi Cygwin Team,


I need your urgent help in resolving the below error :



GENFILE = /cygdrive/d/CODE/UtopiaEC_Extracted/S5610ECLF1_SRC/S5610ECLF1_SRC/GV_TARGET/series_telesto/utopia/S5610XX/S5610XX.gen

c:\ECloud\i686_win32\bin\emake.exe (6848): *** cygheap base mismatch
detected - 0x611548E0/0x1A848E0.

This problem is probably due to using incompatible versions of the cygwin DLL.

Search for cygwin1.dll using the Windows Start->Find/Search facility

and delete all but the most recent version. The most recent version *should*

reside in x:\cygwin\bin, where 'x' is the drive on which you have

installed the cygwin distribution. Rebooting is also suggested if you

are unable to find another cygwin DLL.

ERROR EC1018: Unable to load cygwin1.dll: LoadLibrary(cygwin1.dll):
Invalid access to memory location. (998)



I have doubled checked. There is only 1 cygwin1.dll file.I even did a
cygcheck to verify the same.
I even reinstalled the cygwin and even restarted the laptop, but the
issue was still there.

Can't figure out what the acutal problem is ?
But one wierd thing is happening. After doing a system restore, the
issue seems to be gone.

I guess some issue with the windows memory management.



Your urgent help would be highly appreciated.


 Thanks
Ranjeet Singh

first 1.5.18 is a bit old and unsupported anymore.
Latest version of cygwin dll is 1.7.16


I suggest an upgrade and this reading

specifically
http://cygwin.com/faq-nochunks.html#faq.using.fixing-fork-failures
http://cygwin.com/faq-nochunks.html#faq.using.bloda

You can also install 1.7 in parallel to 1.5 for a test

I assume that "Ecloud" refers to "Electric Cloud".  You really should
check with them regarding this error.  We don't support this software
here. See:
