Hi,
  I am trying to set up ROOT to run in cygwin on a Windows 2000 machine.  I
just installed ROOT using the InstallShield version of 3.01.05.  I followed
the set-up procedures listed on the root Cygwin Setup web page.  When I try
to run ROOT, I get the following error:

(dar-i7000) [71] root
Error in <TWinNTSystem::DynamicPathName>: dll does not exist or wrong file
exten
sion (.dll)
Error in <TWinNTSystem::DynamicPathName>: dll does not exist or wrong file
exten
sion (.dll)
Error: No symbol TGWin32 in current scope  FILE: LINE:0
Error: type TGWin32 not defined FILE: LINE:0
*** Interpreter error recovered ***
Error: No symbol TWin32GuiFactory in current scope  FILE: LINE:0
Error: type TWin32GuiFactory not defined FILE: LINE:0
*** Interpreter error recovered ***

and a pop-up window saying:

root.exe - Application Error
The instruction at "0x10001fbe" referenced memory at "0x00000000". The
memory could not be "read".

Here is some of the environment:

(dar-i7000) [68] echo $ROOTSYS
d:\root
(dar-i7000) [69] echo $PATH
/d/root/bin:/home/roberts/bin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/local/bin/X11:/opt/bin:/bi
n:/usr/bin:/usr/bin/X11:/usr/ucb:/usr/X11R6/bin:/sbin:/usr/sbin:./bin:.::/c/
WINNT/system32:/c/WINNT:/c/Program Files/Microsoft Visual
Studio/Common/Tools/WinNT:/c/Program Files/Microsoft Visual
Studio/Common/MSDev98/Bin:/c/Program Files/Microsoft Visual
Studio/Common/Tools:/c/Program Files/Microsoft Visual Studio/VC98/bin:
/c/Program Files/DevStudio/DF/bin:/c/Program Files/DevStudio/SharedIDE/bin
(dar-i7000) [70] which root
/d/root/bin/root


If I try to run root from Windows by double-clicking on the root.exe icon,
it seems to run fine.

Does anyone have any ideas?

Thanks,
Doug
