Re: Doing vfork: resource temporarily unavailable

Hello,

When launching Cygwin Emacs 24.5 [1] with my standard `.emacs' file
(which I successfully use with Windows Emacs 24.5 and 25.0), I have
"Doing vfork: resource temporarily unavailable" errors.
[...]
       1 [main] emacs-w32 85364 child_info_fork::abort: C:\cygwin\bin\cyggs-9.dll: Loaded to different address: parent(0x1710000) != child(0x19C0000)

This indicates that you need to run a full rebase (https://www.cygwin.com/faq.html#faq.using.fixing-fork-failures). The simplest way to do this is to run '/usr/bin/rebase-trigger full', then stop all Cygwin processes and services, and then run setup-x86.exe. The _autorebase postinstall script will then take care of the rebase.

I have occasionally found it necessary to reboot the computer before doing this.
