[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #47497] VirtualAlloc pointer is null. Replace msys-1.0.dll as a workaround

[Martin Wegmann]

Follow-up Comment #10, bug #47497 (project octave):

Hello, 
I just today installed Octave 4.2.1, typed "pkg list" as my first command and
it broke:

0 [main] us 0 init_cheap: VirtualAlloc pointer is null, Win32 error 487
AllocationBase 0x0, BaseAddress 0x60EA0000, RegionSize 0x60000, State 0x10000
C:\Octave\OCTAVE~1.1\bin\less.exe: *** Couldn't reserve space for cygwin's
heap,
Win32 error 0

Then I installed the attached msys-1.0.dll from Octave-3.2.3 and it the
package list was displayed.

I run Microsoft Windows Server 2012 Standard.

So I guess the problem has not really been fixed.

Thanks,
Martin
