Hi,

I am trying to compile Stockfish project on github. I tried first to do it manually, by RDP. I went to C:\msys64\usr\bin, set path to this folder, went on C:\Projects, cloned stockfish project went to src and typed make build ARCH=x86-64-bmi2 COMP=mingw COMPCXX=g++. It threw me an error saying that cygwin version was incompatible. I don't know C++, so can you explain me why this happens? In my computer I have installed MSYS2 (same folder C:\msys64) and it is compiling well.

Output:

C:\projects\Stockfish\src>make help
      2 [main] uname (332) C:\Program Files\Git\usr\bin\uname.exe: *** fatal error - cygheap base mismatch detected - 0x18031F410/0x180318410.
This problem is probably due to using incompatible versions of the cygwin DLL.
Search for cygwin1.dll using the Windows Start->Find/Search facility
and delete all but the most recent version.  The most recent version should
reside in x:\cygwin\bin, where 'x' is the drive on which you have
installed the cygwin distribution.  Rebooting is also suggested if you
are unable to find another cygwin DLL.
