Re: [squid-users] Re: Squid 2.5 STABLE7 failing under Cygwin Windows XP

Fine.
I have installed SquidNT port of on my G: drive apart from the one
running already.
Both the Squids have different Service names under Services Applet of Windows.
I have already created swap directories. (squid -z).
Visible_hosname have been declared.
Both are running on same machine.
Both have been assigned different NIC.
Both have been assigned different ports.
Freshly installed Squid has been allowed access in the firewall rules.
Now when I do " G:/squid/sbin/squid -f g:/xy/etc/squid.conf"

I am getting following error in my cache.log :

FATAL: Failed to create unlinkd subprocess
Squid Cache (Version 2.6.STABLE13): Terminated abnormally.

My observation:
1. There is no squid.pid file present in G:/squid/var/logs
2. unlinkd.exe exists at g:/squid/libexec/unlinkd.exe

Please help why I am getting this error.
