Very strange.  Taken together this suggests that the shell that the X server
runs is failing to run the command specified.

You might try strace-ing the X server to see if this gives more information
about why it's failing


Good suggestion!

 6020 490158858 [main] XWin 4316 C:\cygwin\bin\XWin.exe: *** fatal 
error - unable to remap C:\cygwin\bin\cygXext-6.dll to same address as 
parent(0x1977) != 0x6678


rebaseall solved the problem.

Thank you,
Danilo




I updated to X11R7.4 in two different PCs (with different
configurations/cygwin packages installed/XWinrc/X configuration) and I
have this problem in both.

I just wanted to know if this happens also to anybody else.


I'm afraid it works for me

Hello,
yesterday I installed the fresh new X11R7.4, this morning I also 
updated various packages and now the menu on the X tray icon does not 
work anymore: the menu items (also within submenus) are all there, but 
clicking them does nothing (apart a brief flickering of the hourglass 
mouse pointer).


I have a personalized .XWinrc in my home directory, so I tried to remove 
it and use the system's default one: no way.


Only the default items work:
  1) Reload .XWinrc
  2) Hide Root Window
  3) About...
  4) Exit...

All the other items do not work, even the simpler ones:

xterm exec xterm
notepad exec notepad

(so neither cygwin application, nor plain windows application, do work).
So it seems that the exec items do not work.

I tried to gather some info about this problem:
  - by looking into XWin.log: but found nothing;
  - by adding items like this one:

writesomething exec /bin/echo something  /xxx.txt

or

without any luck (the file /xxx.txt is not created)

I updated to X11R7.4 in two different PCs (with different 
configurations/cygwin packages installed/XWinrc/X configuration) and I 
have this problem in both.


I just wanted to know if this happens also to anybody else.

Ciao,
Danilo
