Hi all,
I'm having some trouble with some scripts that we are trying to run in cygwin. These scripts work fine on both Unix and Linux boxen, but when trying to do a "pgrep" in the script, get a fatal error. I've tried to find an answer in the archives and via google but either it's not a commonly encountered issue, or my keywords are poor....
I can re-create the error from a command line. Below is an example:
-------------------------------------SNIP-------------------------------------------------
[557] /c/dev/apps/bin
$ ps ax

$ pgrep -P 2160
28 [sig] pgrep 3292 C:\cygwin\bin\pgrep.exe: *** fatal error - called with threadlist_ix -1
Hangup

Can anyone give me some pointers on what might be going wrong here?
Thanks!
