Title: no more fork() ???
Post by: woutermense on July 10, 2008, 08:56:33 PM

So I'm configure-ing amule in msys and then this weird happens:

Code: [Select]

checking for munmap... no
checking for nl_langinfo... no
checking for pow... yes
./configure: fork: Permission denied
./configure: fork: Permission denied
./configure: fork: Permission denied
checking for select... ./configure: ${+set}: bad substitution
(cached) ./configure: ${}: bad substitution
./configure: fork: Permission denied
./configure: fork: Permission denied
./configure: fork: Permission denied
./configure: fork: Permission denied
./configure: fork: Permission denied
./configure: fork: Permission denied
./configure: fork: Permission denied

after that no more processes start in msys, and also no more processes start in windows! After checking taskmanager, highest PID is 175000 or so. Is this a limit? Running Windows XP SP3

I've never had this problem, although the last time I used MSW was for the 2.2.1 release. Soon I'll have to do it again, because there are already some issues in MSW I want check out.

So, to summarize up: the 2.2.1 release tarball worked for me. If this happens only with later ones, then we're doing something wrong, otherwise I don't have the slightest idea what to do.

Well I think maybe the problem is not with aMule but with MSYS.
