I know, this has been reported before. I searched the archive and it
was suggested that upgrading to 1.7.5 would fix the problem, but
apparently not in my case.
I am running WindowsXPx64 and
cygwin.dll 1.7.5-1. I'm attempting to copy a file from a Tandem system
(stop laughing) running Samba (stop laughing). and get the error:
cp: skipping file `//tiny.labs/wjohnson/build/TANDEM/bin/qpcfg', as it
was replaced while being copied
I tried listing the inode number
and it still seems to change between each try. Something like:
D:\dev>ls -i //tiny.labs/wjohnson/build/TANDEM/bin/qpcfg
18446738026459551968
//tiny.labs/wjohnson/build/TANDEM/bin/qpcfg
D:\dev>ls -i
//tiny.labs/wjohnson/build/TANDEM/bin/qpcfg
18446738026451034128 //tiny.labs/wjohnson/build/TANDEM/bin/qpcfg
I have another (older) system running Cygwin on 32 bit windows and Cygwin 1.5.25(0.156/4/2) and it
seems to work fine. I also tried this on a 32 bit VM running WindowsXP
and 1.7.5-1, hosted on the same 64 bit system where it fails and it
works there as well, but does not work on a similar VM with 64 bit XP
and 1.7.5. Looks like this is an issue with 1.7.x and 64 bit windows.
Any suggestions on what to try would be appreciated,
otherwise I will have to go back to 1.5.25.
Thanks.
