Re: cygwin 1.7.5, perl *** fatal error TP_NUM_W_BUFS too smal

Hello,

SUMMARY:

I installed cygwin 1.7.5 on windows 7 (64 bit OS), and when I run some
command which uses perl, I get the following error:

0 [main] perl 2528 C:\cygwin\bin\perl.exe: *** fatal error - Internal
error: TP_NUM_W_BUFS too small.




Update:

I deleted c:\cygwin, and did a complete new install.

Problem is still there:

I'll send email to the latex2html mailing list to see if someone there knows anything. If anyone has any suggestion to try, I'll do it. I am at a loss now what to do. I'll try to use my windows perl from inside cygwin, but I was trying to avoid doing this due to many problems this can cause. Should I try building cygwin from sources on my PC?


I tried running perl on some small script (hello world) and no problem, it works ok.

$ perl -v

This is perl, v5.10.1 (*) built for i686-cygwin-thread-multi-64int
(with 12 registered patches, see perl -V for more detail)
