Copied below from Leonards earlier post this year. In my case AT does try to solve on the first attempt usually with a fail, after that I get the below in the log file after .8 secs
Anyone, running AT x64 in Win 8.1
Thanks
Solving...

Getting the same error on my Win 8.1 x64 setup. Also fails on jpegtopnm: or tiftopnm: or when WRITING any PPM file .... Exact same configuration works on Win 7 x64 with no problems.
Any other Win 8.1 successes?
Thank you.

I also use windows 8 and I am getting the same error. I have not been able to get astrotortilla to resolve any image.
I also get the error that a JPG, FITT or TIFF file cannot be read.
do not have a way to try AT on another system.
Sent the email to cywin but no reply has been sent.

I obtained the same error while calling wcs_xy2rd from an home made software using cygwin/astrometry.net installed by Astrotortilla. With Windows 8.1 x86 (32bits).
I solved this by installing the last version of cygwin other the one installed by Astrotortilla.

I know this might be a bit late, I had the same problem and my solves were failing, but after some research, i determined my solves were failing because of bad configuration, the pointer message is just an error, it shouldn't stop AT from solving. I get the message everytime, even after i upgraded to win10, but everything solves fine, although i think it may be taking a bit longer.

Every time I run a solve I get this message:
