Hi!

Claus Hentschel recommended to write to this mailing list, because he doesn't know what is wrong.

The problem is I can't start the LyX port for Windows. I'm using XP (MikTeX, X-Win32), and when I try to start LyX, I get the following error message:

LyX: Creating directory /cygdrive/d/home/.lyx/ and running configure...
grep: writing output: Bad file descriptor
grep: writing output: Bad file descriptor
[... same grep-Message 70times repeated]
grep: writing output: Bad file descriptor
grep: write error: Bad file descriptor
LyX: Done!
XIO: fatal IO error 113 (Connection aborted) on X server "192.168.0.1:0.0"
after 73 requests (70 known processed) with 0 events remaining.

If I start LyX again, then I only get the following error message

XIO: fatal IO error 113 (Connection aborted) on X server "192.168.0.1:0.0"
after 373 requests (370 known processed) with 0 events remaining.

The connection to the X-server is ok, because if I start with no present home-directory, I get a window within the X-server saying that the user directory cannot be created.

I tried everything, I started Windows in "secure modus"; I copied the files from a working Win' 98 Lyx (which has the same file structure) to XP (same error), I installed LyX, MikTeX and Cygwin several times, I installed it to Win XP of my neighbour (it works there without a problem).

Now I don't have any idea, what I can try to get it working :-(

What does the error code 113 mean?

Attached is the output of cygcheck. Maybe there's something wrong with environment variables,

but before lyx starts, it sets the following variables in lyxprofile:

export HOME="/cygdrive/d/Home"
export DISPLAY=127.0.0.1:0.0;
export PATH="/usr/bin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/X11R6/bin:/bin:$PATH"
export USER="`id -un`"
export MAKE_MODE=unix
export OSTYPE=cygwin
unset DOSDRIVE
unset DOSDIR
unset TMPDIR
unset TMP

Thanks in advance for your help!
Sebastian
