After install Cygwin by following this document (or this one as backup), the next step would be installing Moshell (Step 13 in that document). When you type bash moshell_install
command, you see an error like this:
!!! Your cygwin installation is out of date and incompatible with the latest moshell version !!!
Please upgrade to the latest cygwin version by rerunning the setup.exe from www.cygwin.com/setup.exe
It is a common problem. You are not alone. To resolve this problem:
- Check your cygwin version (Command:
cygcheck -V
) - Check www.cygwin.com for the latest version.
- If you are sure that you have latest version, open “moshell_install” file (under “C:\cygwin\home\USERID“).
