Re: Again: "A Cygwin, Swarm or Java error?"

[Jan Peters]

Alex,

I just downloaded the first version I found (jheatbugs-2.1.tar.gz, not the
newest one), an  untared it in cygwin.When I tried to run it, I got the same
error. Shall I consider downloading and installing cygwin again?.

Greetings

Jan
