Hi all

I am getting this error when I try to run Perl

$ perl -v
/usr/bin/perl.exe: error while loading shared libraries: ?: cannot open
shared object file: No such file or directory


I originally tried to used setup.exe to upgrade my 1.5.x cygwin to 1.7.x
and things seemed to be quite broken.

So, I renamed c:\cygwin to c:\cygwin.orig and started from scratch. 

Now I'm unable to run Perl :-(

Does anyone have any idea how to diagnose what's going wrong?

Thanks
~ Michael
