- Subject: fork permission denied [WinXP]
Dear all,
I've just installed Cygwin v1.5.25-7 on a WinXP plateform.
The aim is to build a complete cross-toolchain running on a cygwin
system, for a bare-metal arm target.
To begin, I would like to re-build the (GNU)binutils from their sources
The whole procedure runs well on a usual linux system, now I would
like it to run non my cygwin system.
While running the script below:
PREFIX=/opt/crossgcc
TARGET=arm-elf
BINUTILS_VER=2.18
../dwnld/binutils-${BINUTILS_VER}/configure --prefix=$PREFIX --target=$TARGET
The following error occurs:
148 [main]] sh 2912 fork: child -1 - CreateProcessA failed, errno 13
../dwnld/binutils-2.18/configure: fork: Permission denied
checking build system type...

If you meant to cross compile, use '--host'.
'config.log' for more details
15 [main] sh 2052 fork: child -1 - CreateProcessA failed, errno 13
../dwnld/binutils-2.18/configure: fork: Permission denied
Though I have googled a lot, I am still desperatly looking for any
clue, tips, or any else that can help fixing that.
Of course, I have first searched into the mailing-list archive, but
anything seems to deal with fork-related problems.
I guess It is not due to the configure script itself, It sounds to me
like a problem in the cygwin configuration.
The only solution seems to be "installing Cygwin into another
directory other than C:\cygwin" which I tried too, and did not fix the
problem at all.
I hope not to bother you all too much, I am a real newbie in the cygwin world.
Maybe it is useful, the first time I launched cygwin, the message
below appeared:
7922 [main] bash 3448 child_copy: loaded dll bss write copy failed,
0x675B5000..0x675B51B0, done 1736,
windows pid 3448, Win32 error 5
Your group name is currently "mkgroup_l_d". This indicates that not
all domain users and groups are listed in the /etc/passwd and
/etc/group files.
See the manpage for mkpasswd and mkgroup then, for example, run
mkpasswd -l -d > /etc/passwd
mkgroup -l -d > /etc/group
This message is only displayed once (unless you recreate /etc/group)
and can be safely ignored
Finally, here is the cygcheck -s -r -v output in case it may help:
