Fixing remap error in cygwin

without comments

After updating cygwin packages, sometime you get following error:

C:\cygwin\bin\<some>.exe: *** fatal error – unable to remap C:\cygwin\bin\<some>.dll to same address as …

To fix this:

- close all cygwin consoles
- open DOS console (Start >> Run >> “cmd”)
- cd c:\cywgin\bin
- ash (this will open bash console with $ prompt)
$ ./rebaseall
- “exit” from bash console
- “exit” from DOS window

This should fix your remap problems.
