Hello:
I am having trouble installing all of the MINGW32 based tools that I downloaded as zip files.
I am in Windows 98, and I have the WINZIP utility for unzipping. It works with just about all of these (downloaded) zipped based tools except:
"gcc-2_8_1" and "gas-980119"
An error message keeps coming (up when I unzip) that says: "Error: cannot create C:/MINGW32/bin/c++filt.exe. Please press F1 for help. "
Also, for "mingw32-980105" an error msg: "cannot create C:/MINGW32/samples/dlltest/rcs/dll.c,v. Please press F1 for help."
What should I do? Please help if u can.
Best Regards,
Brian Begg --------> brianb@ixpres.com
p.s. e-mail anytime you like.
Hello, Brian!
An error message keeps coming (up when I unzip) that says: "Error: cannot create C:/MINGW32/bin/c++filt.exe. Please press F1 for help. "
Also, for "mingw32-980105" an error msg: "cannot create C:/MINGW32/samples/dlltest/rcs/dll.c,v. Please press F1 for help."
As far as I can tell from the file names, they are not relevant for a working GPC. The file is something related to C++, and the second is for version control of the file `dll.c' and only relevant for developers.
So I recommend just to ignore the errors and to go on ... ;-)
Hope this helps,
Peter
