Make execvp vfork permission denied 1.5

Post by steaky1212 » Mon Jun 08, 2009 6:08 pm

Hi,

I dont know where this is supposed to go, or what is actually going on.

BUT, I installed the latest devkitPPC using the Windows Installer and kept getting:
Make: execvp /sh/bi Permission Denied
Make: vfork Permission Denied

or errors to that effect.
I then installed 1.4.10 instead, and the example compiled without a problem.

Just thought someone ought to know,

Which version of Windows are you running?

Do you have cygwin installed on your machine?

Hi,

Sorry it took so long to get back, I completely forgot about it due to it working.
I am running windows XP, and I dont have cygwin (unless it was packaged with devkitpro).

I can't reproduce this locally at all. Is there any chance you might be able to provide some more information?

Which antivirus application do you have installed?
Are you running as a limited user?
Did the installer ask for escalation?

erm... Ive got comodo firewall and NOD32 antivirus.
running as admin so no permission issues.

I will try and install 1.5 tonight (in about 7 hours from now) and see if it works
