Cygwin and PuTTYCyg /bin/sh: No such file or directory


Somehow I messed up my cygwin install so i cannot use PuTTycyg to connect to it. I get this error:/bin/sh: No such file or directory What could I do to fix this problem?


Solution

  • The problem may be a conflict between the cygwin1.dll file supplied with PuTTycyg and Cygwin's own cygwin1.dll file. You can try copying the cygwin1.dll file from c:\cygwin\bin\ to the folder where you have placed PuTTyCyg.
