Re: Windows: cannot create here-doc

Hi Simon, This one is very strange, from the error and the fact that it continues it looks like whatever TEMP and TMP are pointing to are not always available or some locking issue is going on. I would try running ProcMon https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/downloads/procmon and filtering paths to whatever TEMP and TMP are set to. In the dialog that opens when you run it, select in the first box path, select the "starts with" condition then enter the Windows version of the path in the third one. Make sure the final box is set to "Include" and press add. Then try again. Once it fails, stop capturing (File -> click on "capture events" to unselect). This should contain the accesses to things in your TEMP and why it failed. (If TEMP contains a unix path you can get a windows one with e.g cygpath -w $TEMP) Once we know more can figure out what's going on.

I think your suggestion of adding

# Set user-defined locale export LANG=$(locale -uU)

worked. No more perl messages.

Still having various troubles…

Here’s the current one (log below). I’m getting lots of

./configure: line 2534: cannot create temp file for here-document: Device or resource busy

And finally

checking whether the C compiler works... no

sed: can't read conftest.c: No such file or directory

configure: error: in `/c/code/HEAD':

configure: error: C compiler cannot create executables

I have environment variables TEMP and TMP set.

Oddly, re-running configure gets further – see second log below.

All deeply strange.

Thanks

Simon
