Subject: bash: cd: /cygdrive/w: Too many levels of symbolic links
Date: Fri, 29 Apr 2022 14:21:01 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <e895ae39-e128-078d-5758-06804abaccdd@wesbarris.com> (raw)

For the past couple of months the latest versions of cygwin produce this error 
when attempting to reference a network drive.  There have been a couple of other 
threads reporting this and talk about patches.  Is there a fix coming for this 
in the production version of cygwin?

$ cd /cygdrive/w
bash: cd: /cygdrive/w: Too many levels of symbolic links
$ mount
C:/cygwin64/bin on /usr/bin type ntfs (binary,auto)
C:/cygwin64/lib on /usr/lib type ntfs (binary,auto)
C:/cygwin64 on / type ntfs (binary,auto)
C: on /cygdrive/c type ntfs (binary,noacl,posix=0,user,noumount,auto)
D: on /cygdrive/d type ntfs (binary,noacl,posix=0,user,noumount,auto)
