Error compiling in Cygwin

I've been trying and trying to compile SMAUG 1.4a in Cygwin, and have followed the directions in "How to Compile" several times from start to finish, but I consistently get this same error message when I try to compile:

I'm completely confused and have looked all over for someone with the same problem...

Any thoughts? Thanks!

Hm, try Googling that error. I see many topics on that.

Also, make sure you have enough RAM and hard drive space.

That's what I was thinking those error messages sounded like, not enough memory. *shrug*

Yeah, I did some research after this. I suppose that's what it is, but I wonder why? I have cygwin sitting alone in a 10 gig volume, running XP with 1.5 GB memory.

I think I must have done something wrong installing cygwin. I am going to try it again, following the instructions very closely. I'll let you know what happens.

Thanks,

Mancko

I googled for Win32 error 487 and found another person who had the same problem but in a different part of Cygwin:
http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2005-09/msg00919.html

Maybe that will help you... it also looks like there are a lot more messages in that google search, I'd suggest poking around there a bit to learn more about this.

David:

The link did indeed have the solution, though I have no idea what I did. But that's okay, it's part of the learning process.

I did see that page before, but I wasn't sure if the problem was the same, so I was looking for something more specific. But thanks, everyone, for the help...

Cheers!
