nano fail helpppp #69

Open stomaras opened 6 years ago

stomaras commented 6 years ago

$ nano main.c 5 [main] nano (8424) C:\Program Files\Git\usr\bin\nano.exe: ** fatal error - cygheap base mismatch detected - 0x1802FD410/0x180301410. This problem is probably due to using incompatible versions of the cygwin DLL. Search for cygwin1.dll using the Windows Start->Find/Search facility and delete all but the most recent version. The most recent version should* reside in x:\cygwin\bin, where 'x' is the drive on which you have installed the cygwin distribution. Rebooting is also suggested if you are unable to find another cygwin DLL.

@stomaras Can you provide more information from your environment.

Windows version
Git for Windows version
Cygwin version
Bash version
nano version

at least.

This can happen if your PATH environment variable has some other directory on it containing cygwin1.dll earlier than the path to C:\Program Files\Git\usr\bin\.

What does echo $PATH show at the command line?
