cygwin and squid - RLIMIT_NOFILE

Mon Dec 3 22:52:00 GMT 2007

$squid 
a)squid does not bind to a port
b)ps shows it sits around for a while, then goes. maybe creating 2
instances.
$squid -N
it gives this error.. and terminates, does not do funny business with
duplicate processes. but does not run at all
better with the -N though, it displays an error and fails, instead of
just failing.
$ squid -N
FATAL: setrlimit: RLIMIT_NOFILE: (24) Too many open files
Squid Cache (Version 2.4.STABLE7): Terminated abnormally.
CPU Usage: 0.040 seconds = 0.010 user + 0.030 sys

Hangup
This is a classic error described a few times on the mailing list.
I have tried some different solutions offered, but no solution worked..
- the hex edit
- the autoconf.h edit
I would try the autoconf.h edit again, but cannot find where to
download the cygwin squid source. I tried it once, but reinstalled
cygwin, and do not know where I got the source. The source that
cygwin can install with squid, does not configure, I get
Currentuser@minitough ~/squid-2.4.STABLE7
$ ./configure
creating cache ./config.cache
checking host system type... Invalid configuration `i686-pc-cygwin':
system `cyg
win' not recognized
And regarding the hex edit. When I do that (verifying the size of
squid and squid.exe are the same, so the edit went fine)
note- /bin is same directory or place as /usr/bin
I get this error
$ squid -N
 9 [sig] squid 2344 C:\cygwin\bin\squid.exe: *** fatal error -

Hangup
So..
has anybody managed this?!!!
and how?!
 
TIA
