GCC fatal error: can't open /tmp/ccc6IHTT.s for writing

GCC fatal error: can't open /tmp/ccc6IHTT.s for writing

[Paul Keir]

Hello,

After installing a package (libxrandr-dev I think) GCC 4.5.3 (from Exp) 
has a problem. Even Hello World gives me:

hello.c:1:0: fatal error: can't open /tmp/ccc6IHTT.s for writing: No 
such file or directory
compilation terminated.

I have tried reinstalling GCC with no luck. Can anyone offer advice?

Thanks in advance,
Paul

  Is the drive where your /tmp dir is located full?  Does it have the right
permissions?  Can you create the same named file manually (e.g. run a command
like "ls >/tmp/ccc6IHTT.s")?

  If none of that sheds any light on it, please run "cygcheck -s -v -r >
cygcheck.out" and send that file **as an attachment only please** with your
next post.  Also, re-run the gcc compile command that's failing, but add the
"-v" option to the command-line, and show us all the output it generates.

    cheers,
      DaveK

Thanks. No, it's not full. The permissions are:
drwxrwxrwt+ 1 Paul root      0 Feb 24 13:36 tmp
and I can create the same file manually.

The output of gcc -v hello.c is attached. I am running Windows 7 
Professional - Service Pack 1.

I'm afraid I can't send the output of cygcheck to the mailing list for 
confidentiality reasons. I could either send it to you directly, or 
perhaps run cygcheck in a way to generate less data. By the way I get 
the following errors from cygcheck, only when I redirect the output:

You can always edit the file to blot out the sensitive data.

sed -e 's.sensitive.insensitive.g' cygcheck.sensitive > cygcheck.insensitive

  Oh well, always worth checking the basics first, but no real surprise!

  If you're that worried I don't mind if you'd rather send it to me offlist,
go ahead, but it's not like you know me well enough to trust either, so I'd
suggest you redact any sensitive data (user names? passwords in environment
vars?) before posting it either way.

  That's not unexpected if you're running under a non-administrative account.

  There was nothing unusual in the output from "gcc -v".  If the cygcheck
output doesn't show anything, I'll have to get you to run cc1.exe under
strace.  However, before we do that, there's one other thing I forgot to ask:
what's the exit status after gcc fails?  "echo $?" should show it, assuming
you're using bash.

echo $? returns 1 after using gcc.

  Right, that's "helpful" of it!  That's clearly just a fail status but not an
errno value.

  Anyway, I think your cygcheck reveals the problem.  You have multiple
cygwin1.dlls of different versions in your path at the same time.  You also
have a homebrew build of gcc 4.7 in your path, and it's using SJLJ exceptions
rather than DW2, which means that its runtime DLLs will be incompatible with
the standard system ones.

  Try removing the cygwin1.dll from C:\Windows\SYSTEM, and cutting
C:\Users\XXXXXXXX\home\apps\gcc-4.7-20120128\bin out of your PATH, and see if
that fixes it.

    cheers,

Looks like time to check the read-write permissions on directory /tmp
and any files inside it.

Thanks Dave, it's fixed. It looks like the problem was the cygwin1.dll 
in C:\Windows\SYSTEM. I have no idea why that was there. (I am not the 
first to use this machine.)

As a precaution I have also removed 
C:\Users\XXXXXXXX\home\apps\gcc-4.7-20120128\bin from my PATH. I had 
built it with --program-suffix=-4.7, but the following potentially 
conflicting files remain there with their names untouched:

cyggfortran-3.dll
cygssp-0.dll
cygstdc++-6.dll

Thanks again.

  Well, you may just find out when something else stops working - it's not
unknown for people to ship custom toolchains built on Cygwin that install the
DLL into the SYSTEM directory.  (In which case, put the DLL you found there
into the binaries dir alongside the tools involved.)

  Although having them later in the path than the system versions in /usr/bin
should in theory make that safe, mixing DW2 and SJLJ is asking for trouble to
crop up somewhere down the line.
