I did my usual morning updates from Cygwin and saw the following error
messages (thank you for the autorebase by the way, long needed, great idea).
Package: Unknown package
autorebase.bat exit code 1
coreutils.sh exit code 127
I've tried re-installing the coreutils package and still see the following.
Package: coreutils
coreutils.sh exit code 127
Package: Unknown package
autorebase.bat exit code 1
While I can run the Cygwin terminal window, there appears to be a very serious
issue as I can't run commands like "cd", "ls", or "cygcheck" either. When I
echo the $PATH I get the following. This definitely doesn't look correct.
$ echo $PATH
/cygdrive/c/Program Files/Common Files/Microsoft Shared/Windows
Live:/cygdrive/c/WINDOWS/system32:/cygdrive/c/WINDOWS:/cygdrive/c/WINDOWS/Syst
em32/Wbem:/cygdrive/c/Program Files/ATI Technologies/ATI Control
Panel:/cygdrive/c/Program Files/ATI Technologies/ATI.ACE/Core-
Static:/cygdrive/c/Program Files/Microsoft SQL
Server/80/Tools/Binn:/cygdrive/c/ProgramFiles/QuickTime/QTSystem:/cygdrive/c/P
rogram Files/Common Files/Microsoft Shared/Windows Live
I've deleted the C:\cygwin\etc\setup\coreutil.lst.gz and re-installed again.
I still get the same exit code message as after the previous re-install
attempt.
Any idea what I've done wrong or what I need to do to get out of this
situation? I can't run cygcheck or I would try to give the output as an
attachment. I'm running a Windows XP SP3 system with McAfee Security Center.
There are no security warnings during the download or installation. Any help
would be appreciated.
Sincerely,
Brian S. Wilson
