Afew months ago i had a Mud up and running perfectly, thanks to Nick and this forum. Anyhow months later and several formats, i've decided to start again. So i download the latest Smaug and cygwin. Now last time i used cygwin, no problems. Now when it comes to using the make command i get jack happening. so i check everything and anything bash related and no make in the bin file.

Please please help you're my only hope

Error 255? Did you download the full Cygwin? It ought to work. It should at least give an English error message.

I have the same error message. I did download the full cygwin, I checked everything and it all works. I get the same error with every mud source code I download. Maybe if you could give some advice to me, that would be great. Vermea@yahoo.com is my email address, so you can email me there, or reply here and I'll check periodicly. Thanks in advance for any help you may be able to provide.

I figured out the problem. You get that error when you do not have the GCC functions installed with cygwin. You need to run setup.exe and download the gcc components. Then try the makefile again, that should fix the problem.
